Good horses running their best against each other? It looks as though Street Sense has no shot in your eyes. When he wins, there is a caveat, he got a perfect trip. He "loses" and is beat a head, and he didn't get his trip.

It was a great race. I enjoyed it thoroughly. SS has a shot every time he steps on the track...no questions asked. Just not sitting in the pew behind you...he wasn't forced outside 3,4,5 horses which is my bottomline question of how will he perform if or when the the situation arises. Will his stretch run be affected or is he "great" or good enough to overcome this obstacle.
