I agree that Street Sense had the better trip of the two---however, with the kind of setup Circular Quay got...he should have been running on MUCH stronger than he was through the lane in my opinion.

You know, I agree with you on that. I thought CQ really flattened out in the stretch even though he still got by the rest of the field. Was it because of the wide trip, or did he not like the distance... or was it something else? I want to see him try it again, I'm hoping he shows a better sustained drive through the stretch next time.
