Super tough horse. I love the guts.

I agree totally. Curlin is rapidly becoming one of my favorite horses of all-time. Hopefully he's around for a long time.

i think curlin will be at three chimneys at the end of the year.

Perhaps, but I didn't think he'd be in the Belmont. Or the Preakness for that matter.

he's good, no doubt. his third in the derby surprised me. i was hoping he would do well, as i said before, to help out the ark derby....but i didn't expect it. then his preakness, it was phenomenal. his performance yesterday was the icing on his cake. he's something else...hopefully he'll meet street sense in the travers, after a much-deserved break. my only beef with the horse has been his trainer, but i'm not going to hold that against curlin, or deny him the credit that is due him, just because of who conditions him.

Agreed, I can't get into the horse because of him... which is a shame.

based upon this year up until this point i think curlin is the obvious choice

Curlin, so far.

He danced in all three TC races, got an awful ride in the Derby and only lost by a head to RTR.

I give him extra points for coming back in the Preakness after being headed and for fighting to get by R2R when she edged ahead.

He certainly has the heart of a champ.
