I don't like Street Sense in the BC either. . . And I'm not convinced he'd get the loose lead that you predict. There will be all this talk before the race (if he goes) about how Hard Spun will get easy fractions yada yada and some jock or owner will decide to run with him early. Right now I love AGS in the BC if Pletcher can get him properly prepped. . .
