I think it will be very interesting to see what the post-time odds are on these two for this race.
I could see a lot of people relying too much on the, "Hard Spun likes poly and Street Sense does not" angle. They might overlook the sometimes important, "Street Sense is a better horse" angle.
On the other hand, people might not pay enough attention to the fact that while Street Sense should be (and would be) a huge favorite over Hard Spun at 10f on the dirt, this race isn't being run under those conditions.
I suppose some of it will hinge on how the other horses in the race will affect the pace scenario, but as of right now, I really have no idea how the odds will look for the "big two" at post time.
