Too much would have to fall his way. The game is interesting in that how many times have we said that and the race falls their way. I have no doubt the horse will be fit. But I agree with you, his connnections were great. Very respectful even in the face of a Dutrow onslaught as I recall. And very strange training methods. They work very slow but they walk their horses forever both before and after works. How much lactic acid can a horse accumulate! I kept seeing them walking Casino Drive around Zito's barn for a couple of hours. He will add some interest. But I really don't think their will be anyone catching Curlin. And he should go out as the monster he is.

do you take into consideration the uh..ahem,
depth of the field he was facing that day? or perhaps i should say lack of depth.
