Rain of epic proportion was on tap for
the abbreviated four-day Breeders' Cup race meeting as Monmouth Park's
ground crew became some of the key participants keeping the event from
being cancelled. The torrential rains kept the racing surfaces
labeled less than perfect but that didn't stop a handful of the
world's best race horses from reaching the winner's circle including
Curlin above. After a long three-year-old campaign knocking
heads with horses such as Hard Spun and Street Sense, Curlin proved at
the end of the day that he was the best of the best winning the
Breeders' Cup Classic - Powered By Dodge, in a runaway victory.
