I didn't see the early races, but it sure seemed to me that the course helped propel Street Game around that turf course. Could be interesting if it stays that way for tomorrow's double carryover.

I thought the turf was fair today. Street Game might just be really good.

Not to take anything away from Street Game, but lone speed in fairly slow fractions for a mile Stakes race didn't hurt him (nor did Cornelio's strangling of Longhunter for the first 3/4's of a mile). I realize the course was yeilding, but he still wasn't going particularly fast.

My comment was more about the the turf and whether or not it was carrying speed based on what Street Game did.
