 BALTIMORE (AP) - Curlin finished third in the Kentucky Derby, no small feat for a horse competing in the fourth race of his career. He might as well have been last, considering the lack of attention he's received at Pimlico Race Course this week before the Preakness.
Before the Derby, everyone was talking about Curlin. The chestnut colt was 3-0 and the morning-line favorite in the nation's biggest race.
Now, he's been little more than an afterthought. The hot horses are Street Sense and Hard Spun, who finished 1-2 at Churchill Downs and are the top two picks in Saturday's Preakness.
