I hope he wins today so he can make history in France. Nobody loved a great story like Will Shakespeare, I think even he would be rooting Curlin on.

I guess the options were blogger or blogspot or whatever it is WordPress, and for some reason this one struck me as more academic … if a blog could be described as such! Anyway, I’ll try to make The Thoroughbred Brief as interesting as possible. The legal issues are definitely what interest me (plus I love horse racing, but am a terrible handicapper, so I had to come from a different angle than other TB blogs), but I was definitely afraid what I wrote would come across as mind-numbingly boring to others. I’m happy if just a couple of people read it and go “oh, ok, that makes sense.” :)

Also would like to say I love how your blog is going. Very refreshing. I know how hard it is to come up with unique material and you are doing an excellent job if I may say so.

Maybe because that’s my favorite of Shakespeare’s works (give me his histories over the rest any day). But anyway, very clever, and I hope Curlin proves every word on Saturday. What a horse.

I think Ford wants to force the sale of Curlin as a whole, because 20% of that price would be more than just the straight 20%, since it would have a control premium of sorts added in. Not that it’s going to happen. Anyway, I actually posted about this a little earlier. I will assume this thing links to my blog, but in case not: http://thoroughbredbrief.wordpress.com
