Curlin- pre-entered for Classic

[smuthg]

I'd really like to see him run in Japan, but I'm guessing from those comments that he'll be done next weekend.

the japan and clark are still possibilities. but i would think they won't go to either if curlin wins next week.

I suspect that he has a better chance of going if he wins. If he runs like sh@# they'll find that something is wrong and then he'll be retired.

i'd imagine if he doesn't win, everyone would chalk it up to synthetic...and that he would run in the clark to go out with one last dirt win, and avoid shipping halfway around the world again.

it also depends on the legal situation with midnight cry, which is yet to be resolved. stud farms won't touch curlin til that's cleared up.
