and i am willing to go down in flames clutching tickets on street sense all next year to prove it!

I'm still holding judgement until I see what other 2-yo's pop-up at Churchill and hollywood in the upcoming weeks.
And I'm really looking forward to the return of Les Grand Trois.
If anyone saw his maiden win back in July at Belmont, they'll agree with me.

street sense for me is just going to be one of those ride-or-die horses. i haven't been impressed with circular quay or the other threats so far.

tiz wonderful looks, well, wonderful -- but has a lot of seasoning to earn and will have to beat a real quality horse soon enough. he could be any sort, but i'm taking an early november stand against him, just because i can -- foolish or not.

i just think that street sense would have won his last three with any little bit of luck and has the look of a horse that is going to appreciate 10f better than most of his counterparts. hopefully he'll lose a couple of the preps to kick in at a big price again come derby day.

this is what i've become, the idiot on the message board talking about the derby already -- i've just never been so excited about a 2yo in my time of following racing as i have been about this one the last two months or so, so i'm willing to go down with him!

Street Sense looked great no doubt. There is such a long way to go however and the development is so hard to predict. Of course that doesn't stop any of us from the folly of mentioning derby hopes in early November.

I will be paying attention to No Biz when he starts again which I'm thinking might be the Remson. not sure about that. He had a later start and was perhaps still too green to attempt the Juvenile. I was impressed by his two starts and think he might have what it takes. We'll see.
