I see no possibly way that Street Sense loses this race, none. He is lightly raced and just getting back to his 2 year old top, while I do see him pairing or regressing, it won't be by much.
I don't give a damn if he was wrapped up, whipped the whole stretch, whatever. What I am wary of is Nafzger seeming to not give much of a **** at all about the Preakness, pretty much admitting that he didn't plan a step beyond the Derby. Add to that Borel's mediocrity when he can't hug the rail, add to that Street Sense's tendency to hang slightly, add to that his likely odds-on price, and you can have him.
