Excuses

[ultracapper]

i haven't really watched street sense's gallup outs, which may be over-rated to some extent, but sometimes they are indicative of a horse's overall toughness or distance abilities. ss is incredible in the far turn, but has made me nervous in the stretch every race this year, except kentucky, and i thought he was susceptable in the preakness. does he pretty much cash it in after the finish line? when "it's done", is "he done"? i don't think ss is a ***** by any standards, but i don't think he's a "dig in and get dirty" colt either. he and borel should have finished that deal in baltimore. very disappointing.
