Again I didnt bet the Travers.. but your horse (Summer Bird) was the best bet, he was the most accomplished, very classy & you know he was going to love 1 1/4. & the odds were great.
Other than Summer Bird the only other option IMO would have been to chase a longshot.

I really wasnt feeling the Quality road buzz.. SB deserved that buzz more IMO.

I couldn't agree more on the bolded, I posted before the race I thought QR was the only horse with enough talent to give SB a run for his money. In addition Mine That Bird was a go until they changed plans in the last minute, it would have been a very good field had all the TC series race winners decided to run in it esp with the addition of QR.
