Street Sense had the disadvantage of first start off a 100+ day layoff and a trip over the slower part of the track... Saturday lost some ground on the turn and Street saved some... They arrived at the wire together. Equally terrific performances and neither deserves to be identified as 'superior'.

They each were superb and they both exit the race as worthy of praise and expectations of ongoing excellence this campaign.
I see the above post as viewing the glass as half full rather alot of posts lately as trying to make a case for the glass being half empty...IMHO both performances were very good but for different reasons.
