first time running the race, curlin took the lead at the top of the stretch but barcola re-rallied to win by 2 L. fast time of 1:46.3 114 sr. going to run again mixing post positions

3rd time watching, curlin finally wins but barely by a neck. not as strong as i thought he would be in these races
maybe Big Brown does have a shot in their face to face meeting6 :)
If BB can win the Haskell and BC I think he can lay claim to being the 3YO of the decade. That's a big if though.
Went wire to wire with Grasshopper winning by 4.5.
Curlin went 3 wide at the 3 furlong mark to win in hand by 5.25 lengths in 1.46.62.
