Curlin falls short at Belmont's Man O'War Stakes
The 2007 Horse of the Year, Curlin, finished two lengths behind Red Rocks in Saturday's Man O'War Stakes. Prior to the race, much talk had been circulating that Curlin could be a contender in Dubai, and in the Arc race in France. That scenario would make Curlin possibly the highest earner ever.
The Belmont match up was run on turf, which was a bit of an experiment for Curlin. With the defeat, trainer Steve Asmussen is keeping his cards close to his chest in regard to Curlin's next run.
Get Affordable Kentucky Health Insurance
Controversy continues to swirl around Curlin's ownership. This gets really complicated, but it seems that two Kentucky lawyers own 20% of the champion. These lawyers were involved in a big pharmaceutical lawsuit and won millions. Accusations are flying that instead of giving the cash to those who were represented; the lawyers pocketed an unusually large portion of the proceeds. Petitions on behalf of those who were represented, have been filed to force the sale of Curlin to make up for the shortfall. The lawyers are currently being housed in the Boone County KY jail.
