Default For those who will miss Street Sense....

Here is a clip of the famous Street Sense like stretch performance by Abe's Hope in the '66 Flamingo against Buckpasser.

Watching this clip sure makes me nostalgic for Street Sense!

I can tell you - but I had to look it up first.

Interestingly - Abe's Hope (who won the Blue Grass...I assume next out) had three full siblings who were stake horses - including a Preakness winner - but he also had a full sister named Gina who went 19-0-0-0 and made $135 in earnings.

Gina didn't exactly get the good genes I take it.

Del 'Red' Carroll's Bee Bee Bee for Mr. Farish... Entered in the Preakness knowing he was a slop-loving son of a bitch and it was going to come up mud... Contributed to stopping Riva Ridge from becoming a Triple Crown winner.
