Curly was devoid of early speed, spending the early part of the race hanging out in the back of pack (strangely enough with Curly Cameli). But, he did make a nice middle move, passing a few before tiring.

Yo Joe (Wertaloona - Yoshi Go by Rivergo) is by the Oklahoma sire, Wertaloona who currently has 6 named 2-year olds. His dam was unraced, but she produced 2 winners including the stakes-placed Yo Fanci who earned $88,712.
