As for this, I didn't see it, I thought it played fair today. As far as the rail bias, which I have seen SOME talk about regarding Street Sense, and this might be taken the wrong way but this race was alot of luck by him, more so that Hard Spun kept on going, if he fades not sure the Red Sea parts like it did. No disrespect to the horse because he is by far the best 3 year old today, by many lengths, but everything went this horse's way, ever hole opened when it needed to. I fully expect him to win the Preakness and depending on who goes to the Belmont, quite possibly the best candidate, breeding wise, since Barbaro, and a long time before that.
