Street Sense wowed the backstretch crowd at Monmouth Park this morning with an impressive workout, the colt's final tuneup before Saturday's $5 million BC Classic.

With regular rider Calvin Borel aboard, Street Sense accelerated around the far turn and covered five furlongs in 1:01 1-5. The 3-year-old colt galloped out with authority, too, and was timed in 1:38 2/5 for a mile.

"He's amazing, an amazing horse," trainer Carl Nafzger said as he made his way back to the barn following the breeze. "He worked great, right on schedule. He relaxed real good with Calvin and then picked it up and finished off strong. He needed to test the track and he did."

Street Sense, who also won the Jim Dandy and the Travers over the summer, will take on Preakness winner Curlin and six others in the 1 1-4-mile Classic — the final race of his career before he is retired to stud.

Borel was all smiles as he led Street Sense back to the barn.
