That's a 3yo male championship campaign buy any measurement, and to be dismissive of him by glossing over the specifics of his season with 'he was 4 for 9' is silly.



On a side note, spoke at length with Ice Tuesday, and Summer Bird is doing terrific and should arrive in Hot Springs today. He will be at the track and Tim is pointing for a June/July return with an eye on the Breeders' Cup as the main goal.
