Would this be bumped had he lost by a nose? If he ran up the track? I highly doubt it.
I'll stick to my call. He ran better than I thought he would today but with that trip he should win. Mind you the worst he could've been in this field had he run a nothing Beyer was second b/c the group was dreadful aside from Any Given....But, Was this a Grade 1? Nope, was that a negative number. Not a chance. The best number Any Given had run was a 2. Street Sense maybe ran a 2 with that ground saving trip. Came back in fronts which he shouldn't be needing....Still don't think he'll make the Derby, nor run a negative his 3 yr old season, nor win a Grade 1 the rest of his career....Let's wait to throw dirt on me until he does.
