Curlin was the best of ours and as a 4yo, he was gunned down by Raven's Pass and Henry.....and it's very arguable that Goldikova was as good as or better than they were. I don't think it's any comparison at all and I'd say this Euro class of 2008 was one of the best 3yo classes I've seen in my 22 years as a fan.
i agree... well maybe not the last sentence as I havent thought it through that hard... nor do I have 22 years of horsey racing experience.

But the 08 3yo's in Europe are much much better than 07 US 3yo's.

Lets see:

Ravens Pass > Curlin
Henry > Hard Spun/SS
Zarkarva > all of em
Gold > Rags

yeah no brainer here folks.
