2) I don't see the comparison between "Blocky's"(I know u luv'em) last race and SS last... Sec was 5-6 lengths back while SS no further than 3 off the entire race and should have pulled it out if he truly is the best in this crop, IMO. And to the Jersey Folk: I was roomates at school with a bunch of guys from NJ, I know it's not that bad, but it was the nicest thing to say that was in my head at the time, I apologize to the rest of the Jersey folk. |

Alright, I understand, but can someone explain why he lost the race and then tell me why it seems I can't try to beat him in the derby? Like I've said 2 or 3x before, I just don't like him on top but will probably use him underneath. I'll check back manana to see who else wants a whack at me, Good Night. |

![]() Not sure how anyone can say SS was outrun in the Bluegrass. SS was on his left lead drifted in behind Great Hunter, then got on his right lead, then Teuf came out and SS switched back to his left lead and lugged in, it wasnt until the finish line when SS switched back to his right lead. After all of this, he loses by a nose to a horse who loves Polytrack.
For me the knock on SS is his tendecy not to switch leads. He had a hard time getting to the correct lead in the Bluegrass and in the BC Juve he ran almost the entire stretch on his left lead. |

![]() I think it depends on your definition of "outrun."
In my opinion he was outran because he didn't win. He had every shot and didn't get there. If he would have won, he wouldn't have been outran. He would have outran everyone else. If the margin is what you are suggesting, then that is a valid point. But that race goes down in history as Dominican's. Street Sense's stallion advertisement isn't going to say Bluegrass Stakes (GR. 1) didn't get outran it will say Bluegrass Stakes (GR. 1) 2nd |

![]() going by what street sense has done, both last year and this....didn't he run on poly just before the bc juvie? didn't win the poly race, but of course trounced the field at churchill......those who ignore history and all that.
as for him being outrun a few weeks ago--i don't think a headbob either way means a horse out ran, or was out run by, another horse. also, did street sense give weight to dominican? or was it level weights for all?
