Default Curlin v. Cobalt Blue

Both of these 6 f winners stretched out and showed great promise in their wins. I think even though Curlin looked very impressive having a wider trip and winning by a larger margin, I will say Cobalt Blue looked more impressive even with an easier trip against what I think was a weaker field.

ONeill is a very wise man it appears. This horse looks like he already knows exactly what he is supposed to do. I think he responded very well to the riders instructions and he looks like he knows exactly where the finish line is. A very precocious showing imo. Very controlled. I would shoot for the Preakness but Merv clearly wants the big show, and Jeannie Jackle's body.
