I know you don't care who says what, but I have never heard one person say Birdstone was better than Smarty. If Birdstone didn't like the wet track like you are implying, it certainly didn't bother him in the Travers. Your claim that because Smarty never won at Belmont is something to hold against him is borderline retarded. He ran there once, and he hardly disgraced himself. I guess winning the Derby and Preakness is no big accomplishment. I find it funny that you can make historical comments while knowing very little of what you are talking about. From a historical perspective NO ONE will say birdstone was better, NO ONE. No one on here, or anywhere.

you are a freaking moron.
the Travers track was listed as "fast".
the rain came after the race that day.
but Im not even sayng The Stone hated an off track.
what I am saying is that the one time they met on a dry track, The Stone beat him.
new to the sport?
maybe, depends on perspective.
but the verification of your expertise relies on someone else, anyone else, agreeing with your opinion.
what the hell kind of sense does that make.
I oay the b*tch next door to say that Birdstone was a better horse.
that does not make it any more true or false.
and you want me to find a "credible" person to say that Birdstone was not the recipient of a "dream trip"?
what makes someone credible and what encompasses a dream trip?
does someone on this board with x amount of posts make them credible?
do they need to be a full time writer with the Daily Racing Form?
or can they be a degenerate at Manor Downs that i see when I stop by to pick up a form?
your position is full of holes and all the smarty party agreeing with you will not make it any stronger.
Birdstone got the right pace scenario he needed to be most effective on Belmont Stakes day.
so what?
it does not make his win any less valid than if smarty jones had won the race while getting an easy lead.
stop worrying about my experience within the game or my historical perspective.
they are not relevant to the argument at hand.
like I said, nothing has changed but the surrounding bullsh*t that has grown.
Ed was right on point with that one.
Repent
