From a chronic complainer... I like the way the industry is delaying these post times so we can see all the graded stakes today. Or maybe it is simply a random occurrence

Still laughing though... what an awesome race!

I agree, but more difficult is defining "the industry."

Two very good 3-year-olds... Summer Bird a notch better than Quality Road at 10 furlongs, but both are talented.

Summer Bird is awesome. How could anyone not like this horse??? 8 career starts, and he's won the three biggest races in NY. That's near impossible.

He just keeps getting it done. I was planning on tossing all todays horses Breeders cup day but Summer Bird always gets the job done so I'll revisit that.

Great race and performance by Summer Bird and a good race from Quality Road as well.

How about someone being alive to ALL in the Pick 6? Hope it was either Interpatation's owner or trainer!

Could win the Belmont, Travers, JCGC, BC Classic, and will not be horse of year!

Summer Bird won today and he deserves credit. But Quality Road - for all the detractors and naysayers - ran huge. 10 furlongs is a tad too far for him, and that's okay. He broke outside, prompted the pace while rank, took over, and held Summer Bird at bay from the half-mile pole to just past mid-stretch. It's not like he was dusted a gave-up.

He's my early pick for the Cigar Mile.

A one turn mile could be Munnings best distance

I hadn't realized this and thought it was cool.

http://drf.com/news/article/107812.html

Interpatation, whose last two wins had come in back-to-back renewals of the Larry R. Riviello Presidents Cup at Philadelphia Park in 2006-07, finished fourth at 28-1 in the 2006 Turf Classic, third at 19-1 two years ago, and was second at 16-1 last year.

Beautiful win by Summer Bird.

They took the 11th off the grass after the pick 6 started, so if you had the first 5... you're a winner! Since it paid $190k someone had a single to the last leg (presumably on the 13 who was 6/5.) Otherwise it was definitely going to be a carryover.

They hit the "ALL" button.

You're like the CSC idiot. Your tripping skills leave a lot to be desired. How's that? I'm done trying to educate you.

In the meantime, keep at the status quo.
LMAO. I am now complete.
