This horse is pretty special. Perhaps we should be rooting for him so we can put the "BC Juvy Jinx" to sleep.

Street Cry is going to be some sire...

Wow, what a nice, nice work.

I like Officer Rocket, I've liked him since the Southwest a lot. Still do and will continue to pay close attention to him.

His 4 furlong work the other day looked nice also. I'd take this as a good sign for Street Sense.

A good sign that the tough race in Tampa didn't do him in. He's a very nice colt.

Thanks Alex

Do you know if the work was in company? The second best five furlong time was recorded by Dark Canyon (:59 3/5) who is a nice colt from Ian's barn who has five bullets in fifteen Churchill works.

In either case a monster move by "Sense and if he makes the gate May 5; you can bet with both fists. BBB

I'm hoping the "jinx" has enough believers to make SS an overlay come Derby Day.

Off topic real quick... Does anyone know where Bejarano is?? He hasnt raced since Sunday I believe.. I know he usually takes a little vacation every year, I was just wondering if this was it.Seems odd, as he's near the top of the jockey colony at Gulfstream..Thanks in advance

what the ? Why so stinkin fast? I mean they had him off all this time and now they want to race him for nothing? I like Street Sense and wondered if he would move forward off the Tampa Bay Derby. Doesn't look like he is the least bit tired. 58 2/5.. is that official? Was there much effort on his part? Was the wind a factor? Fast horses work fast but .. he isn't in Cali.

Maybe the cold snap got him trying to hurry back to the barn

My guess is that Rafeal will re-appear at KEE. The next 2 days at GP are dreadful. Calder East.
