I don't think anybody is saying that Street Sense is the second coming of Citation. I am a pretty big fan of the colt, but I certainly recognize that he has definite limitations. He isn't a horse that "can do it all" and I think anybody with an ounce of common sense can see that fact.
I like his past efforts and I think he could have a good shot in the BCC, but that doesn't mean that I think he is the Horse of the Decade. This need to figure out whether every horse deserves to be called "brilliant" or not seems a bit pointless.
