I guess the point would be that Invasor isn't eligible for the Belmont Stakes, but he is for the BCC. I know you don't plan a whole campaign around one horse, but I find it unlikely that Street Sense would win a race that Invasor was in. A pace scenario that set up well for Street Sense, would also set up well for Invasor who......at this point anyway......is the superior animal.
Someone suggested about a week ago that Street Sense should point to the Stephen Foster as his next race. That makes a lot of sense to me. Although it would be a bit unconventional for a 3yo to compete against older at this time of the year, his love for CD and the fact that the only really tough handicap horse (Invasor) won't be there make that a logical spot for him I would think.
Sumwonlovesyou is a 3yo taking on older at CD. Why not have Street Sense follow in her illustrious footsteps?
