MTB is a 100% GO for the Travers. Confirmed by Chipper

I don't think Summer Turd will help the price of QR.

I like Summer Bird a lot. He really is a great looking colt. I thought his Haskell was way better then it looked. He will love the added distance and he really had zero chance in the Haskell with the race dynamics, not too mention Rachel. I want no part of Quality Road who will be looking to get 1 1/4 off a sizzling 6.5f.. These aren't the odd days when Pletcher's just ran off the screen, I would expect him to be a bit to keen early and fading late. This doesn't mean Quality Road suck just that it will be hard for him to peak in Travers.

How was his Haskel better than it looked? He's pushed around the track by Kent and is only able to clear the distance challenged Munnings late stretch. What dynamics? He had ZERO shot to win the race and ran where he should've, 2nd. He's supposed to be 2nd by default in that race. And, unless he does a disappearing act on the rail at the key point of the Travers, in others words, doesn't run when ALL the others are running, and is then able to last move them, he has ZERO shot. The Travers might just be the best race of the year for me. 1st I'll get to see the FAST QR punk out (unless the old Pletcher juice is restocked) and then, I'll get to see this plug, SB, get his punk ass kicked real good. It'll be a fine day in the BEYER FREE part of the handicapping world.
