they were saying that because of his fla derby win over the superhyped dunkirk, and his very nice comeback effort at 6.5. that and the fact he's yet to lose to rachel, while the others have. i'm not ready to give 'the other' bird the 3 yo championship, but he's definitely in the lead for it. repeats his old mans belmont/travers double-he's a very nice colt. if he goes to the super derby, i'll have to make plans to go down.

his trainer said, more than once, that summer bird takes a bit to get used to a track. i thought they said his later works looked much better? at any rate, he was certainly discounted much too soon.

Do you think it's possible QR was uneasy before the race because he was already doomed here?

Another topic, does it seem like all todds horses are not getting out of the gate? I think his 2 maidens broke slow today and QR.

you shouldn't take this personally. quality road was asked too much too soon off the layoff. pletcher sounded less than confident from the beginning. i don't know why anyone would be shocked that he didn't do as well as some thought he would. he's not that super colt people were looking for-more their fault than his i would think.

It's nothing to get excited about considering he was drowned by RA in the Haskell and that is highly unlikely to change in the coming months if they meet again.
The boys are average at best this year.

Once those horses were literally body to body Garcia was still whipping away, my humble opinion the horses and jocks should consider themselves lucky nobody went down seeing how their legs appeared to have tangled.
