Good luck with that....
And for the people who have problems with me saying that Street Sense has been most effective as a "deep closer"
In Street Sense's three career best races....he's dropped way off the pace early.
He was 11th and double digits behind in the BC Juvie....
He was 19th and double digits behind in the Derby....
He was 2nd to last and double digit lengths behind in the Preakness
IN ALL THREE RACES HE HAD JUST ONE HORSE BEATEN----AND THAT ONE HORSE WAS CIRCULAR QUAY in two instances....and the hapless Imawildandcrazyguy in the other.
I realize he sat just off a 21.62 opening quarter in his maiden win---however, by defenition, he's considered a deep closer off his route form. I find it bizarre that I had to explain that....let alone had another moronic comment about a bias come up.
If anyone really thinks he will be pressing the leader through the early stages of the Breeders Cup Classic---they should probably just lock up and bet Invasor at the 8/1 odds he so obviously will be.
