I don't think summer birds career warrants a stake named for him. Surprised that easy goer wasn't honored with one

But he won THE NEW YORK TRIPLE!!!!!

Summer bird was the 4th/5th best horse in training last year. It would be absolutely ridiculous to have a stake renamed after him, unless they want to mess with some 60k overnight stake.

4th or 5th best horse in training last year? Who was ahead of him may I ask? It's okay you can have your own poll as to whether Rachel can have her own stake named after her, hopefully it will be run right beside prestigious Curlin stakes at Saratoga.

Zenyatta / Rachel Alexandra
Gio Ponti / Summer Bird / Quality Road

Eh.. he could have been as much as the 3rd best horse, or the 5th. that third row is pretty interchangeable.
