My Derby throw-outs

[AeWingnut]

it's not Curlin's fault but he has beat nobody. I want to toss the Bluegrass because it won't mean anything when you compare dirt speed to synthetic against the wind paceless one big run to the wire etc.

Will Dominican have the same kick running a 1 1/4 as opposed to walking for the first mile and sprinting the last 1/8th

If Curlin disappoints, IMO it won't be a bounce. It will be because he's facing tougher competition. Its not as if he hadn't run fast before the Ark Derby.
