I actually agree with you that he was probably fully cranked for the Travers. . . Nafzger's famous for preparing his horses to fire on big days. . . BUT, I don't think the Street Sense we saw in the summer and fall was the same one we saw in the BC Juvie and the Derby.

i agree with that, but for someone to sit here and continue to say a horse was not fully ready for the travers is a joke in my opinion, and makes me wonder what that person really knows about this game

Thats fine, but thats not as big of a joke as saying that Grasshopper was some kind of monster at three that somehow soured over the winter between three and four.

But hey, Nafzger routinely gets his horses all ready to fire their best when they have to face the cp wests of the world.

nafzger gets his horses as ready as they need to be. Thats why he is the horseman that he is.

If you think he had him ready to fire his best shot against cp west, sightseeing and grasshopper i have to disagree. But...thats nothing i havent already said.

You might want to discuss that with your urologist.
