For what it's worth I feel no different about Curlin today as I did before the Classic. So much for hurting his legacy...

On the track...Curlin looked like he would crush..he looked magnificent.

He made a great run around the turn and it looked like he would just keep going.

When he walked back after the race..people in the stands stood and applauded.

That was my view from Section M.

Nor should you. He is a very good dirt horse that wasn't running on the dirt.
On the turf and synthetic, he's just not as good.

When it comes to the dirt, he is/was a pretty good horse. As KG said, there is no way he is even the best horse of the decade, let alone the last 25 years, but that has very little to do with what happened yesterday.
