Did Hard Spun clip heels with Street Sense?

[Kasept]

Pino didn't say a word about any contact Saturday night when discussing the trip. You'd think it would have come up had there indeed been even the slightest brush or clip...

Maybe horse got a little scared when SS came into his path, obviously he was tired, maybe he was a little sore. Who knows why he made that heavy switch, I dont think it was made by contact.

I'm a science teacher and from what I can see we have several forces at work here. There is Kinetic Energy which is the energy in a moving body, such as the wind, a speeding train, or a tractor trailer. When you are moving and one of these objects passes you, you can feel the wind or forces of this moving object. This can sometimes cause someone to take a funny step or go off course a hair. As Street Sense (speeding train), blew past Hard Spun (person or animal standing/walking/running near the train tracks) causing him to slightly alter his style. We could also get into inertia, speed and velocity, but it is what it is.

Watch the overhead again. It appears the SS's TAIL caught HS's nose when he crossed over. He flips his nose like they do when hit with a whip.

.........which, of course explains Funny Cide's huge win 2 weeks later.

Again, when I started this thread, I clearly stated that it had no (zero, nada) effect on the race, Pino didn't claim foul or even mention it...it's just something of interest.

Since it is clear from watching the overhead that they did not touch, no claim of foul, no effect on the race, etc, what is so interesting about it?
Thats what I don't get.

At the time I posted it, I was going on the content of the article (post from another board). What I originally found interesting were two things: (1) jock cut it close and that is something to consider down the road and (2) if HS was slightly bothered (regardless of whether there was any contact) it might elevate his performance slightly making it useful when looking at the Preakness. I thought when I watched the race live that SS came over very quickly...again, no effect on outcome but something to remember...if SS does the same thing in the Preakness, it could be a worrisome pattern when looking at the Belmont. Again, probably nothing just a tidbit of info that I found interesting...what others think is out of my hands.
