That's the way I feel, too. I rooted for Curlin in the BC Classic because there was at least a CHANCE he would run again at 4. Had he finished behind Street Sense and/or Hard Spun, the handicap division would be even more depressing this year.

There's only one top 3-yr-old guaranteed to run next year barring injury: El Gato Malo! Let's hope he takes to real dirt.
