I was hoping Curlin would have the seperation on Street Sense so he didn't get drowned by his move....honestly, even though I was convinced SS would hang...I was never a confident man when he blew by Curlin...and I only didn't think I could win until the 1/16th pole...at that point I thought I'd probably nab him.

In the end, there was no way Street Sense wasn't running 1-2. Since your strong opinion was the Street Sense was a bad bet on top, the best bet was to play him underneath the only two with a chance to beat him. You did just that. Congrats. I see no reason for any of the bashing here.
