The Suburban was actually shortened to 9 furlongs this year and is part of a very watered down July 4th weekend.
You'd have to think that Pletcher is going to point Quality Road to the Whitney, so I wonder if he'll use the Suburban in the interim. The Whitney actually has the potential to be a terrific race if Battle Plan improves in the Foster, Blame comes back in good order and QR gets back in form.
