From a discussion perspective, nothing. However, even though Birdstone was definitely a better beast than Tale of Ekati, I have no problem with anyone making a case for Tale of Ekati at 30-1- he's a G1 and G2 winner in NY and did finish a decent 4th in the Derby.
Royal Assault wasn't in the same zip code as Smarty Jones and Anak Nakal won't be either with Big Brown (although as Royal Assault did, a clunk up 3rd isn't crazy thinking- in fact I think that's exactly where I think he'll finish.)
