Casino Drive will render all of the above moot.

Oddly, a question for you popped up in my head.

At just the right moment, does your lover call you by Justin or Casino Drive?

How do you know I don't call my lover Casino Drive?

Agreed but in the scenario of Big Brown (if) he wins the TC, would you consider him a lock for HOY regardless of Curlin's success for the remainder of this year? If the answer is no, then would that make BB the first horse to win the TC that didn't win HOY?

The fact that Curlin is better and people know it.

At least to this point.

no, i wouldn't think winning the tc alone would guarantee hoy honors. it would go a long way towards it.
ieah says they fully intend to go on with the horse post-belmont, if all is well with the horse. but what else does anyone expect them to say? if he quits after the belmont(which win or lose i think will happen) and curlin wins the stephen foster and follows with something later this year....i expect curlin to get it. it should be for a years' worth of effort, not five weeks.

Who is going to be the jockey on Casino Drive?
