This argument can be made both ways. Or haven't you seen how Macho Again and Bullsbay have raced after the Woodward. I'm not looking for a long winded reply because this will turn into a merry go round exchange that has been said many times over this week...month, I'm just saying that argument can be made both ways.

you are right and its a damn shame that sh*t plastic made a champ like Curlin look like a 40 claimer. Its a travesty. Dirt is the bar not plastic

You must be joking, kgar311 … the surface had nothing to do with Curlin getting exposed, imo.

He was the Winstrol "champ" … the Barry Bonds of horses, if you will.

Never had that same acceleration after the 'roid influence waned in spring of '08.
