If Curlin goes to the arc and wins how could he not be in line for HOY. The Arc and and his other races sure look good even against a TC winner.

Cause foreign races aren't supposed to count in HOY voting. He'd at best have a Stephen Foster and Whitney win in the US which isn't going to get it done against a (barf) Triple Crown winner despite his international accomplishments.

Some slow 3yo and it is cause no one wants to talk about Magnificience only beating her stablemate cause Mike Smith admitted after the race that he stopped on the horse so she didn't win.

"Some slow 3 yr. old" REALLY! In the last five years, only Barbaro was faster in The Kentucky Derby. That's a little extreme.

If you are using Beyers then the figure should have been 104. While with a clean trip he could have run 109 he certainly didn't under the circumstances.
