Oh yes. It was Smarty who got lucky in the
Derby with the mud. And since Birdstone did
not run in the Preakness... I guess ya just never
know.

Onion ran away from Secretariat and would not be
passed. Set a track record a few weeks before
I believe also.

Mysterious stuff.

I thought Birdstone did run in the Preakness....

No, he ran in the Derby (badly), then Zito laid him off until the Belmont he thought Birdstone ran better with well-spaced races. Which is why he didn't race him again until the Travers, and then not again until the BC Classic.
