I agree. Something would have to seriously go wrong with Street Sense for him not to be under 5-1 on Derby day.

Note that of the four 3-1 or under horses since 2000, only one has won the race (Fusaichi Pegasus). If Street Sense is under 3-1, I'd say there are a lot of bad betters out there.

i disagree with that, how would they be bad bettors ? he already ran huge at churchill.... if he wins the bluegrass and comes into the derby 2-2 on the year and defeating the likes of any given satuday, great hunter and hard spun then i'd say he almost definitly be under 3-1
