Agreed with you last year on AGS, and look where that got us. Sucks that I agree with you again.

It got you to where EVERYONE was by the end of the year: on the CURLIN bandwagon.

And you know what? ALL of YOU were on it from the start by that time.

Hell, even CJ was touting Curlin as a good thing on BC day. (Edit: just f'ckin around here. Anyone with any sense of what pace is, be it intuitive or quantitative, knows that CJ is, arguably, the best interpreter of it.)

Well, there was ONE exception: DanG -- he was all over AGS from the start and up to and including the BC.

Prior to the Derby, I said Curlin ran the three best individual races of any horse going into that Derby - if that is any consolation for you TFM.

I wasn't taking a short price on a horse who had never had dirt kicked in his face before - and was certainly going to get a big education from off the pace with all the speed in there. He became my Preakness horse though.

If i had to wager today i would probably put my money on Smooth Air. It seems he's been most consistant in his races and you know you'll get a great price.
