I know we're getting way ahead of ourselves, but I thought they said that, if they were going to send him over for the Arc, they were going to run him in the Prix Foy, a course and distance prep for the Arc. As someone who is not an Albarado fan, I would without question use a European rider who is more in tune with the nuances of European racing. If the concern is that the rider needs to get familiar with the horse, then have him ride Curlin in the Foy as well.
