Street Sense was obviously the leading money earner going into that race so the money meant nothing.

$180k should be plenty. With situations like Lookin at Lucky, Nobles Promise and Dublin glomming the big gelt at Oaklawn, I don't get a sense there are going to be tons of leapfroggers.

$100,000 got you in last year.
