Curlin's best efforts were faster than Rachels.
Curlin beat much better horses.
Curlin carried more weight.
Curlin won bigger races and much more money.
Curlin could run 10f.
Curlin actually ran 5 races in 3 weeks.
Curlin even had a grade 1 turf placing.
Rachel and Curlin are not all-time greats. That label should only be used on horses like today's ARC winner who has beaten great competition at every distance. To put Curlin or Rachel in a category with Sea The Stars is insulting to him. He isn't exactly the type of horse that would need a weight break to barely beat Macho Again or Mine That Bird.

Curlin also had testicles.
