Yes, please, wait until after he wins the Preakness, if he does. Street Sense has lost enough times that he cannot be consider invincible. A slow pace beat him in the Bluegrass. And a bad trip beat him in the Breeders' Futurity (or maybe it is he just doesn't run as well on Poly as on traditional dirt?).

I think he does take a step back on poly...then too, his trainer kept the goal in mind. He's the only one with a chance now so I hope he runs his race in Maryland!

I don't see his winning the Preakness as a "definate".

From a outsiders point of view that was a very impressive win you would hope there is some other horse in the wings that could beat him as after that race none of the others even came close.
I would have to back him again after that he made the rest of the pack look 2nd rate

For me it wasnt the fact he won but the way he won !! He never looked like losing that race.

I'll have to wait and see what the figs turn out like (and find out who else is running in the Preakness) before I declare any horse a triple crown winner. I'd love to see one in my lifetime, though...

I would take Hard Spun over SS in the Preakness especially if he runs like he did today.

If the race was 1 1/8 Hard Spun would have won

hell if they ran at 6F he would have run too..........

I would not be surprised if HS was done for the triple crown..that effort has probably taken it's toll..Larry comes from the Lukas school of recking good horses.

SS has a good chance at the Triple....

Only four horses were "finishing" the race, the "superfecta" finishers...NONE of the others were anywhere...NO excuse for any of them! If anyone is beating him...it would be the 2nd or 3rd horse & maybe a "new shooter".
Forget five through twenty....
