Curlin encountered traffic trouble twice in the run to the first turn, failed to secure a good early position, and yet turned in a creditable effort to finish third. He is clearly a talented colt. But he has already done so much in so little time - advancing from maiden company to the 3-year-old classics in the span of three months - that it seems unlikely he can take another huge leap forward and make up the eight lengths by which Street Span beat him. It is more likely that he will regress.

Who is Street Span?
That is the stuff that my AOL flags everytime I log on.... Oppsss that Spam... Never Mind.....
