SC,

Birdstone

I hated him coming into the year.

I hated him in the Belmont.

I disliked strongly him in the Travers.

I still hate him tomorrow.

I've been playing horses for 28 years and I do not recall ever cashing a single bet on a Zito horse. As far as I am concerned the only pattern to Zito's horses is that they will outperform when you have a lot of knocks against them and underperform when they look like they are coming into a race perfect.

IMO, this freshening is too long between races coming into the BC Classic at 10F and the horse wasn't good enough in the Travers to win this anyway. Feel free to tap out. :-)
