I want to say I was right about Curlin. But he didn't win or run second so officially, I was wrong.

Wrong about Circular Quay. Thought he'd do better.

Wrong about Street Sense. I won't ever doubt this horse again.

Right about Teuflesberg. But then, wasn't everyone except Sanders?

Sort of right about Curlin and Hard Spun. Had them as two of my top four and they finished in the top three.

Right about two preps, long layoffs, BC Jinxes, inexperience, etc being negatives. This is a different game than in the past and the same angles that were important then don't mean as much now. Talent is the great equalizer. Always.

I would add to my earlier post, that I was wrong when I thought that the eighth beer of the afternoon was a good idea.

Terribly wrong.

Good lordy, orange roots, and crunchy dry white ends, and cheap dollar store sunglasses. Horrible.
