Street Sense this saturday at Tampa Bay

[POINTGIVEN1985]

He will finally run this weekend at tampa bay, and i just want to know what everyones opinion on him is, and how you feel he matches up with any given saturday? my opinion is this horse will have a big year and i think he can beat any given saturday this saturday.

I'm putting $200,000 on his head cause i'm baaaaaaaaaaaaallin!!

I'll take Any Given Saturday simply for the fact that he has a race up on Street Sense.

No matter what you may think of Street Sense, I think this is clearly a go against spot. No way is he tightened up for this. I can see him getting a piece under ideal trip conditions, but no way at the price.

Actually what I've been reading is Nafzger's been trying to keep Street Sense from getting too tight. The word was that they feared him being so close to peaking after the Breeders' Cup that they've been on eggshells the last couple months. If he was at 100% from now til the Derby he'd have to be something extraordinary to keep it up without getting hurt.

nafzger had a real good one before. his best races were the biggest races - the fla derby, ky derby. and bc classic. he didnt win the preps. this is a prep. what was his name?

Entries drawn tomorrow, but from what I have seen, nobody of note and it will probably be a smallish field.
