Not really sure why Street Sense wasn't weighted 126 the standard high weight. Where are his credentials to be weighted higher than 126 other than his B cup win? I know it probably doesn't matter to anyone and these handicaps are stupid and severely biased but when you compare Street Sense's record to other horses that wee weighted above 126 it's hardly even close.

I wondered the same thing Cannon. I mean in 2004 Declan’s Moon whose was undefeated and Breeders’ Cup Juvenile winner Wilko shared the highweight assignment of 126 pounds. I'd like to know what was seen in Street Sense, that he was given 127???
