I know I will regret responding to this.

he's a very fast horse, and a very good horse....with very real physical issues. He's 7 years old and has only made what 18 starts?

as for the Curlin thing....WTF? no comment.

I just hung up on Nick, luckily I saw the original post while we were talking and I was able to convince him not to ship Commentator over for the Dubai World Cup.

I just hope he discouraged him from trying to sound like the Italian Don King when the press comes around looking for quotes.

As for the World Cup, he'd be loose as can be in there - and might pull a Moon Ballad.

It would be a very high risk/reward decision to run there.

He's just having fun.

Compared to some of the drivel you post on message boards he's Shakespeare.

PG85,
After reading this whole thread, I have a quick question for you:
Who do you think would win between Commentator and Curlin going 1 1/8?
