Street Sense colt Street Life impresses in Aqueduct's Broad Brush Stakes

It was a St. Patrick's Day victory for Street Sense's three-year-old Street Life, who earned his first Stakes win in Aqueduct's Broad Brush Stakes going one and one-sixteenth miles. The colt was a strong Maiden Special Weight winner last time out at Aqueduct for trainer Chad Brown, and this second victory in a row brings even more excitement for his future.

Sent off at 9-5, Street Life began the race in fourth about four lengths off the leader. The colt remained in position until the stretch where he moved along the outside to take the victory at the end. Hard Facts, by Darley stallion Hard Spun, finished third.

Bred by Mueller Thoroughbred Stable, Ltd, Street Life is out of the Grindstone mare Stone Hope. The mare is a half-sister to multiple Graded Stakes winner and G1-placed Brilliant. The colt hails from the family of G1 winners Furiously and Dancealot.

Street Sense, an outstanding son of Street Cry, is the only horse to ever complete the G1 Breeders' Cup Juvenile - G1 Kentucky Derby double. In addition to Street Life, he is the sire of G3 winners Castaway and Motor City, as well as G1-placed filly Miss Netta thus far from his first crop of runners. Darley's Hard Spun and Street Sense are currently one-two on the US sophomore sire list. Street Sense currently stands for $40,000 at Darley USA.
