The way I saw it, was here's Hard Spun's choice - move and get ahead of the two he knows are going to be stopping like rocks heading into the turn, or get hung out three or four wide on the turn trying to get around them, then get back down to the rail. The horse was in control of the race at that point, there was a ton of horse there. It may have turned out to have been early, but there was a choice to be made at that point, and I don't see the bad in it. This is an awesome horse.

Curlin - can't wait to see what he is in the fall, when he matures a bit, against older. Ohmygawd ...

Street Sense - class act.

What an absolutely terrific race!

The cream has risen to the top twice now.
It certainly has been two very entertaining and enjoyable races, these first two classics.
