-lays over the field
-decent post, allows him to survey what is going on

He just isn't going to lose. If for some reason the public allows him to go off at like 4/5, it might be absolutely unload time for me, but I am guessing more like 1/2 or 2/5
All things being equal, I agree Curlin shouldn't lose; however this is horseracing and we know there are no locks in this game...Saying that I hate betting a race just for the sake of betting where my only hope is where the clearcut best horse doesn't run his race. History says American based horses run very well in The DWC, it's either that or a Godolphin horse as it seems with this race and I doubt even the connections will admit that Jalil is the second coming of Street Cry...
