Best race of the weekend in terms of intrigue and drama to me was the King's Bishop.

Best performance was Icon Project with Summer Bird a close 2nd.

I am at work so I can't really surf around on horseracing sites but am I correct in reading something about It's A Bird being DQ'd in a race in May for a drug violation? I vaguely remember something to this effect.

Yes, he was DQ'd from the purse in the Oaklawn Handicap because of a violation.

Sorry I was thinking aloud, not sure this was appropiate to this thread. Obviously I was thinking of the similarities of Icon Project and It's A Bird.

I second this. King's Bishop was crazy but Icon Project made me say WOW!!! and Summer Bird was right there.
