[quote=Bobby Fischer]damn.
He showed a true turf horse could dominate the California main track. By 2009 the Breeders Cup Classic should be mostly good turf horses if the trainers are less than 2 years behind the times.


Running on the Oaklawn main dirt track was such a horrendously bad decision for the horse probably most likely to win the BC Classic at that time, but I don't see anything definitive that even suggests that choice was related to his suspensory injury.


i dont think it was a bad decision at all, it more then likely had nothing to do with the injury...and i think it proved that he is just a very very good horse on either surface and the only horse in the country who could compete with Curlin
