I can understand why he would probably have bad memories from last year, whether one believes that Curlin didn't like pro ride or not, I thought Albarado moved on him far too early, racing as he were riding on dirt, it was no surprise he was caught late. Numbers wise it was about on par with a Curlin type race, I believe he was actually starting to lose it 2 races prior to the Classic that started with the turf experiment and the result would have been the same on pro ride or dirt.
