No. Not at all. Would it have made a difference if either of the two above would have won?

Yes. We would be thinking that the best US horse from 2007 was in the breeding shed. Now we are thinking that the best US horse of 2007 is also the best dirt horse in the world. And we can at least hope to see him again in the BC Classic. That's a difference.

I didn't know for sure, but at least Curlin did not have his breeding plans locked up ahead of time, like SS, Hard Spun, and Any Given Saturday.
