I would have to think Curlin would be a longshot for personal reasons not to mention he is completely unproven.

If I was asked to choose a mating for her I would choose Medaglia D'oro . The foal would represent a complete outcross and MDO has had tremendous success when crossed with Mr P line mares, including Rachael Alexandra and Warriors Reward. He would also bring speed to the equation.
Not to mention they would sell a colt for 8 figures to Dubai
