One horse who's form is pretty interesting is Birdstone.



Like War Pass he won the Champagne at age 2 after breaking his maiden first out at Saratoga.

Like War Pass he returned in a manufactored allowance race at Gulfstream Park and beat a weak field at 1/9 odds

Like War Pass he bombed next out as the heavy favorite. He finished 5th beaten double digit lengths in the Lanes End at Turfway Park - behind the likes of Sinister G., Tricky Taboo, and Little Math Man.

In his next three starts, he'd throw a shoe in the mud on Derby day, and swept the Belmont and Travers.

If people want to put a positive spin on the chances of War Pass rebounding, the form of Birdstone would be a pretty good place to start making their case from.

Birdstone really was unfortunate with track conditions in the Lanes End, where they sealed the track ten minutes before post, and the Derby in that slop behind Smarty. He wasn't the most durable horse as is clear by the spacing, but he ran well when given time to work up to big races. I don't think Birdstone was as fast as War Pass was last year, but he has a better pedigree for distance.
