I think hes better than Big Brown but I wouldnt laugh and ridicule someone who thought otherwise. I just dont think Curlin has done nearly enough to make the argument a stupid one.

you should, those two horses are on distinctly different levels. who is the best horse Big Brown defeated? Macho Again? Coal Play? there is no comparision. I don't know how an informed person can look at the company lines, speed figures, consistency of racing class etc, and come to a different opinion.

Good question. Who is the best horse Big Brown defeated? Before seeing the Jim Dandy I would have said Pyro. But now I am not too sure. I'd have to give that to Macho Again.

Now what about Curlin? Street Sense or Lawyer Ron? What would you say? I would say Lawyer Ron.

Lawyer Ron would blast Macho Again, so I guess you are right.

The filly and mare division is tough this year, better than the boys I think.

Guess we will see if he runs a couple more times but figure me for one to laugh at too. He romped out of the 12 post at Gulf and rolled out of the 20 post in Louisville. I don't disagree that he hasn't beaten real god ones and he did clunk at the Belmont. But he looked dead beaten at the 1/4 pole last weekend and still got it done. It'll be interesting to see how he does vs older.

the question was whether or not Big Brown is better than Curlin, or if he is a great horse. it will be interesting to see how he does against older, I'm doubtful that will happen though.
