Curlin had no problem in traffic in his prior races -- take a look at the Arkansas Derby replay. The horse ran professionally. And he ran professionally in the Derby too given the poor ride he was handed.

That was a piss poor ride from gate to wire.

Robby talked about Curlin as a "push button horse" prior to the Derby. He must have pushed the wrong buttons that day.

To blame the horse is pathetic. That horse wasn't checking himself. He was trying to roll but Robby kept putting him in bad spots. Watch the replay of the overhead. That horse had nowhere to go because the jockey lost his head.
