steve and andy had a nice talk about the tc..do we like the matchups ie hard spun/street..and curlin or a tc winner..for me i like to see the horses battle race after race..but a tc winner would be nice..in years past when racing was great what was your all time fav matchup...

The only tc battle that I recall and is worth mentioning is Sunday Silence - Easy Goer. After that it's been abysmal to say the least. Really hoping Street Sense wins the TC with Pletcher running 2-3-4 and they're all beat by a nose by SS.

TC battles, you've got to give it to Affirmed-Alydar, to me that was the alltime battle sequence.

Personally I like to see the same horses battling several times.
