Is Curlie great?

I've said this too... but, what about before that? Does he go off just one start? Maybe. Otherwise, he's going to have to buck the two-starts over track trend.

You mean what does he do or where does he go between now and the Goodwood if that is his plan?

If that's what you're asking, I don't really know....that would be up to the connections and all...and I'm sure how the horse is doing physically and how well he's training will play a role in where he goes next.

from what i read earlier, he heads to keeneland from the desert (via belmont)to train over the poly there-before they (asmussen and assistant, exercise rider) put their collective heads together and figure out a plan for the second half of the season as they called it.
so, do they wish to train on poly to see how he does on it, or because some think it's kinder to a horse? but his having been in the fairgrounds since the bc would tell me that it's the former.
