call me naive if you wish, but how does any of the above explain that summer bird is indeed a pos as you called him? it was pointed out that he beat quality road, this years presumptive handicap leader, twice last year-and you rattle on about cdi and betting?

That was last year. I think Summer Bird was a really nice horse deserving of the 3yo championship, but Quality Road is running at a level SB was never going to get to.

and that is all pure speculation. i think summer bird still had room to improve. keep in mind, quality road broke his own donn record this year-he was no slouch last year at all. yet the bird beat him twice. and yes, summer bird was a really nice horse. i'm not saying he was the bid come back to life, but he was certainly not a 'pos' as chuckles called him.
