while I do think curses are meaningless, the one thing that makes me not want to bet Curlin (eventhough I will bet him in all exotics, on top and all) is the fact that he is going to be the favorite or second choice and he really has not had the toughest of competition in his last two starts.
As Andy said on the radio today, he beat Storm in May by 10 lengths, a lot of horses should beat SiM by 10 on Saturday. Curlin IMO deserves to be 10-1 not 4-1 on Derby Day, and that is the only reason I am a little put off by him.
