Curlin didn't look invincible...

Actually BB only won by 1 3/4 lengths.....not that anyone's counting... except the Thoroughbred Times, and the DRF, and...well, my eyeballs.

I think it'd be hilarious if they both make the Clark and both lose. I think there's more of an argument to be made of BB's form having not progressed and Curlin being less than fit. It's gonna be harder to get the former to change than the latter. It's entirely possible I suppose that both are off their game. Is anybody running a final quarter with any speed these days? I'm trying to figure out who it is so I can guess who's gonna sneak in the back door on these jokers. How'd Colonel John and Go Between come in? I got the impression those too were not the quickest.
