Hes exactly like Mineshaft down to his dimwitted jockey. They are the same kind of horse, same talent level. Hes not great, hes certainly very, very good. Even being very good hes proven that he cannot win on grass, and he cannot win on synthetic.

A very good question was posed to me...Can not winning on grass, and not winning on synthetic hurt Curlin's stallion value? I think it has to hurt, why would someone breed to a horse who regardless of their outstanding talent couldnt win on either of those surfaces?

I look forward to the next superstar Euro 3yo coming over and beating our best next year in the classic. It will not be until CHD holds the Breeders Cup the Americans win.
