Anybody know if Curlin works in front wraps?

Hard Spun worked sans front wraps of any kind the other day.

In the hunter world (very different I know), you wrap legs all the time. Nothing to do with soundness (or lack thereof). It's just protection to hopefully keep them that way.

Was it complete rumor that Tiz Wonderful had bandage bowed? Not saying I have any way to back it up, I just heard it on another forum. You hear lots of things that are total BS.

street sense wore them in his last two races.

I like Curlin but something tells me that he might be a little light in the frame. There is a reason why he didnt start at age 2. The Derby is grueling and I am not sure Curlin has the muscle and bone mass to handle such a race.

Yeah that is my big knock agianst him. There has to be a real reason why he didnt run at 2. And only has so few starts. But it is the derby, and stranger things have happened.
