Street Sense/Curlin final works

Did anybody see them? They had the times in Bloodhorse. http://racing.bloodhorse.com/viewstory.asp?id=41358

I think someone here joked that around the time of the Haskell Curlin looked like he was in foal in the paddock but had gotten back into form for the JCGC where he obviously performed better. Is he still moving forward? Does Street Sense seem to've physically moved forward off his race on Poly? Nafzger said he's ready and basically that they're doing maintenance until the big day but it's hard to know how it's going if we can't see it. After the last one and even the Travers folks seem to think SS didn't have the razzle dazzle he had from Juvie to Derby. Does that still apply?

I loved Street Sense but I don't think his post Derby races have suited him at all. I really wonder if he will get a track he can run on at Monmouth.

Does anyone look like they are peaking?

Its Street Sense's final work but Curlin is working on the 22nd of October before heading to Monmouth.

Sounds like Street Sense dazzled in his last appearance on the track for his workout and is coming into form a la Derby as opposed to Jim Dandy/Travers according to DRF via ESPN.com. Very interesting.
