Street Sense Not For Me....

I don't think Stormello will be alone up there....

Hard Spun, Cowtown Cat, etc... will keep him company and pump and sweat out tough fractions I think

I'm a huge CQ fan, but my head keeps telling me to go with Street Sense. Seeing his work from last week was almost jaw dropping. The horse moves so well, and he'll be sure to handle Churchill well, as usual.

His Tampa effort was brilliant off the layoff (track record), and I'm completely willing to throw out the Bluegrass with those fractions (and he still only lost by a nose).

I just can't seem him running a dud, and that's being objective as possible.

I think Street Sense is an include. I'm a little biased. I bet him in the Juvenile and he doesn't owe me any money. You gotta dance with the one that brung ya mentality.

Really Street Sense is coming into the Derby like he came into the Juvenile. The only difference is Circular Quay and Great Hunter won't complete the trifecta

still waiting for the draw to study the race

but Street Sense is going to absolutely be on my ticket

The fact that Street Sense showed he can throw it down--remember the battle down the lane with AGS--and is one of the few horses with triple digit Beyer's, is training well and looks like a monster according to eyewitnesses... makes him a STRONG and legitimate contender.

I got about 7 or 8 horses for 4 spots.

All I can hope is that 1 or 2 of them draw those great 17,18,19,20 spots and make my job a little easier
