oh no, not again. not the bc juvie curse again.

i think it's an odds thing. i wonder how many years they ran the champagne before that winner won the derby... it's just odds, that's all. odds of getting to the derby with a three year old, let alone winning it--what, 40,000-1? it'll happen, just like odds are eventually pletcher will win a classic, or that another filly will win the derby. but if it doesn't happen, it's not because of a 'jinx'. it's just racing.
it's not like the derby and preakness winner fails to win the t.c. because of a jinx. it's just the way it is.
