IMO, BB has been nothing but been super impressive. Unlike Curlin had done at this time last year, he has annihilated two fields going 1 1/16 miles and 1 mile respectively. Curlin had only annihilated one field going 7 furlongs. Curlin had not even ran as a two year old. As a two year old, BB annihilated a field of horses going 1 1/16 mile while blowing the turn a little bit.
Like I said, I could be completely wrong about BB. I guess we'll find out.

Again, you all may want to make fun of her and say it's premature and stupid to compare him to Curlin but if you stop laughing for just a second, you would see that what she is saying is entirely correct. It may be hard for some of you because you have it in your mind what Curlin ended up doing. But the comparison of Big Brown's resume on March 7 of this year to Curlin's on March 7 of last year is not a silly one. Maybe I'll get laughed at now for taking the unpopular position of being on her side.
