Hey, I'm THRILLED we are watching Curlin run at 4. I just hope that he and the owner get the recognition they deserve for the horse's achievements at 4. Curlin's owner, unlike most, is actually being "sporting" about his approach to managing the horse. It's such an unusual approach that I don't know if we appreciate it anymore!

Between Curlin and Big Brown -- isn't it as simple a question as "who do you hate more?" -- LOL.

CURLIN, so underappreciated at 3

and everyone's superstar at 4.

This game is easy.

This isn't subliminal advertising for your shoes, is it?

LOL. I like that.

The "unusal" aspect is interesting though.
