Street Sense (born February 23, 2004 in Kentucky) is an American Thoroughbred racehorse owned and bred by James B. Tafel.
Trained by Carl Nafzger and ridden by Calvin Borel, after breaking his maiden at Arlington Park, Street Sense finished third in the Arlington-Washington Futurity Stakes and third in the Lane's End Breeders' Futurity behind the winner Great Hunter and Circular Quay.
On November 4, 2006, Street Sense won the most important race for 2-year-old colts in the United States, the Breeders' Cup Juvenile. He was voted the 2006 Eclipse Award for Outstanding 2-Year-Old Male Horse.
Currently his owner plans to have Street Sense follow the trail to the 2007 U.S. Triple Crown series. On March 17th, 2007, in his first race as a three-year-old, he won the Tampa Bay Derby by half a nose over Any Given Saturday in a thrilling home stretch battle that turned in a track record breaking time for the one and one sixteenth mile distance.
