Default I want to bet Street Sense.......but

After researching the field, I really want to bet on Street Sense in the Derby. My hesitation is Street Sense is a filly. When is the last time a Philly has won the Derby and how often does a filly ever win against the boys in Triple Crown Races?

I am sorry for originally spelling filly wrong which I have corrected. What else did I mess up....sorry for the confusion. I'm kind of a novice.

A "Philly" owned and/or bred won the Derby last year, the Preakness and Belmont in 2005, and the Derby and Preakness in 2004.

If you mean a FILLY, Street Sense ain't a filly.

Funny on clarifying Philly....good job

So Street Sense is not a filly? Now I really feel like an idiot and perhaps I shouldn't do my research during Happy Hour. Sorry for wasting everyones time

hence the confusion

More embarrassing than that is I don't even drink. So I guess there is no excuse. Obviously I need to take my medication from the regulars here. If I saw this, I'd be piling on too.

Is Street Sense going to be the favorite?

This reminds me of my first post a few years ago at ESPN where I claimed Smarty Jones wasn't a PA bred. Doh!
