No friggin way!
At short odds its a dumb bet. If I'm taking a shorter price in this race, its someone with a proven record. It hasn't happened for a long time for a reason. Curlin couldn't do it, and the trend brings more horses into the race this way............still hasn't been done. Its more than a curse, it proves that this race takes some seasoning to win. Taking a low price just gives people an excuse to call it a "Curse".

Yeah, it's not a curse. It's been done before, albeit a looooooong time ago.
