I think Street Sense is such bad odds, and I think a previous poster might have nailed it, with a smaller field, and pace, , he might not run according to form. He has the class, no doubt to win from anywhere, but he does have a habit of winning or losing by just enough. He hung and gawked against Curlin, and was all out to beat Any Given Saturday. He had to run down Hard Spun with a perfect trip. Might be a time to take a shot...esp if he does go off at 1 to 9. why not....Graveyard of favorites..... don't spend a lot, but maybe get a lot back. Grasshopper I hear alot about, but like a previous poster said, might be the wiseguy horse.... Maybe bet on the 20-1 shot? For You Reppo? Haskin kinda mentioned the horse sheepishly last night on Steve's show, as maybe a horse that was interesting.....

For You Reppo is interesting. His pedigree says no, but he has a foundation of 9f races, and a good trainer. Gomez can ride... why not


No one should beat Street Sense here, unless Street Sense tires unexpectedly.

Grasshoper has the most unknown potential, but I think Sightseeing has solid form.

If Sightseeing could magically combine the best aspects of his last two races -
The Dwyer where he makes excellent headway on the backstretch before getting sandwiched, and The Dandy where he shows late interest -
Sightseeing could at least make Street Sense work. Then sightseeing could magically combine some pick-6 tickets for me.
