they were saying that because of his fla derby win over the superhyped dunkirk, and his very nice comeback effort at 6.5. that and the fact he's yet to lose to rachel, while the others have.


i'm not ready to give 'the other' bird the 3 yo championship, but he's definitely in the lead for it. repeats his old mans belmont/travers double-he's a very nice colt.
if he goes to the super derby, i'll have to make plans to go down.
