Street Sense moves to the top of the Dispatch Derby Poll

[Travis Stone]

Street Sense, the 2-year-old Eclipse Award winner, moved to the top of the Dispatch Derby Poll in week two holding onto a narrow one point lead over Nobiz Like Shobiz at the end of voting Monday.

Nobiz Like Shobiz and Street Sense flipped their positions in the poll while still garnering the same amount of first place votes. The one point margin further emphasizes the competitiveness of the crop this year.

“While none of the major horses raced this weekend, there were a few allowance and minor stakes winners that received some attention,” said Travis Stone. “With the margin so small last week, all it took was someone adding a new horse or a horse receiving a vote for the first time to adjust the margin.”
