If Curlin beats me as a 7/2 or so favorite, so be it. I won't take those odds to break a 14+ or actually 125 year trend. I remember Bellamy Road.

I also think that the second choice, Street Sense will be underlaid at ~9/2.

I couldn't agree more! If he's that good, I tip my hat to him...but less than 8-1...Forget It !!!!!!

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
