Big Brown headed to Monmouth

[Danzig]

it's for three and up. i think curlin ought to show up. after all, didn't asmussen say that curlin always made a better effort on his second go 'round on a course? of course that wouldn't really be following the letter of that law exactly, but it would be curlins second start on turf.
what the hell...jackson is so hot for the face off, do it here!

yes, Jackson should show up with Curlin. Hell, Big Brown looks to be done as it is. I imagine if Curlin does run there's a chance they could race each other into submission and Red Rocks or someone would be there to pick up the pieces.

You don't cater to the guy who's been talking the smack. You make him either come to you or look foolish. Besides, let's see what I'd rather win.. Woodward/Jockey Club Gold Cup.. Monmouth Stakes.. Really a toss-up.

oh, i'd rather win the woodward/jcgc as well. but i wonder how much money monmouth would put up if jackson expressed interest? i just wonder what the reaction from ieah would be if jackson announced curlin was going to show up. would love to be a fly on the wall...
