Going from nine furlongs to ten, I much more comfortable going with the faster horse, Curlin, who is not slowing down as much at nine furlongs as other horses like Scat Daddy.

If you are giving credit to Scat Daddy for facing diversity and not folding, then do you also give demerits for when he faced diversity and folded?
Circular Quay, No Biz, Street Sense, Drums of Thunder, they all handled him along the way.

sure he has managed to win his last two but I'm not sure how tough those races were. Notional, Stormello, Chelokee?

big question mark in my mind.

LOL!!!

Sorry Jim... watch the Breeders Cup Juvy again... the Juvy was the only race Scat Daddy finished off the board and IMO it wasn't that horrible of a race for him. Maybe I'm nuts and need to go and watch it again myself, but that's what I saw.
