![]() ......happened to be next to the clocker when they reported his times. 12:2, 24:2, 36:2, 47:4, 59, 1:11:2 Calvin had a big smile coming out the gap (as we can all imagine).

![]() Street Sense could be the real deal. It wouldn't surprize me if he does break that curse.

![]() guys to me this race boils down to this:
street sense is the best horse, and we know he likes cd. he didn't look that hot on the tires, but he bounced back last year from a bad race on the tires to dominate the big one at churchill. i think he'll do it again.

![]() Street Sense IS the real deal. He should be favored, and if he isn't the public is making a huge mistake. People get too caught up in trends like the BC Juvy jinx (which, if you look over the winners, especially the last 8-10 years, have been less than stellar beasts) and supposed absolutes... meanwhile the horse that may take over the role of favoritism has raced THREE times, total... another supposed Derby faux pas. But you couldn't win the Derby off a 5 week layoff, or be a gelding, or from New York or Pennsylvania, or not have a 100 Beyer, or be a front runner, or sleep on the left side of the stall, yada yada...

![]() Sharp it was..I'm going to drive myself crazy thinking about whether or not I believe he has enough foundation this spring because everything else points his direction. One key that we will have to guess about others is that this horse obviously loves Churchill. Reminds me of the way John Ward put Monarchos in the Churchill barn weeks before the others arrived.
