I agree that the ten length plus gap was not created by bias alone, but definitely was aided by it. Personally I find Circular Quay to be just as much a Derby contender as Street Sense at the moment because I think it will be a miracle if Street Sense ever runs back to that race on BC day.
This Saturday should be a great indicator with CQ, as a huge field goes postward in the Risen Star. That should at least give him some more practice maneuvering through big fields. I'm expecting big things from him. Hopefully we will see the start of that on Saturday.
