Hey Street..
I wasn't trying to say that he should not go off favorite in the race. I absolutely agreed with all of your points above including the fact that Nafzger would not have Street Sense fully cranked for that race and I felt Hard Spun should be the favorite also. I was just saying that money will be bet on Street Sense regardless of how the race is going to set up because he is the Derby winner...and people love to bet the Derby winner no matter what...In the end Street Sense still went off as th favorite in the race...not by much but he did go off the favorite because people love to bet the dreby winner...
