From today's TDN


STREET SENSE LIKELY FOR TAMPA BAY DERBY
Eclipse Awardwinning two-year-old Street Sense (Street Cry {Ire}), unraced since his impressive victory in the GI Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Nov. 4, is increasingly likely to reappear in the GIII Tampa Bay Derby Mar. 17. The news comes on the heels of a strong five-furlong move turned in by the champ Tuesday, when he covered the distance in 1:00.21, with a final quarter mile in :22.62. “He's been building up to this all winter, and this is why we brought [jockey] Calvin [Borel] down here this morning,” trainer Carl Nafzger told Daily Racing Form. “I wanted him to finish up strong
and that's exactly what he did. This work really moved us up a long way.” He continued, “At the moment the timing is good for the Tampa Bay Derby. That gives us almost four weeks to adjust if necessary. Right now I'm not as interested in where he finishes in his first start back as how he finishes. Although when we get to the Blue Grass [GI, Keeneland, Apr. 14], he's got to be there even if he doesn't win.”

I have to say that I am still not sold on the idea that there is nothing wrong with this horse despite his nice work the other day...it would be nice to see him race one of these days...
