I've got to think that Larry Jones will do what's right by the horse. If he comes out of the race bad, I'm going to assume he'll shelf him (like he did after the Lane's End.) I'm not connected with the colt, so I don't know if he had any ailments or not. Who knows?

Street Sense certeinly COULD win the Triple Crown, but (as always) it will be a tall order.
Isn't it possible that sometime CB will try to make a ride like that, and the rail gets shut off? His ride today was unbelievable, but you still need to get a little lucky to pull something like that off. I assume CB will at least attempt similiar tactics in his next races on this horse (why wouldn't he?) and while it is a great strategy if things go his way, I would hardly hand this colt the next two classics at this point.
It would, however, be great to see.
