...c'mon...it's only a mile and a half...

The Belmont may have gone to the birds...

With Mine That Bird deemed the mortal lock in The Belmont, it

makes one wonder...what would Nick Zito do...

Well, I'm not sold on Nick's 2 horses, Miner's Escape and Brave Victory

but then again... I never saw D'Tara coming last year either?

So, it a fit of illogical foresight I've settled on Summer Bird to take the whole

thing at 12 to 1...yup...Summer Bird, Mine That Bird and Flying Private

rounding out a very nice trifecta...

Hey, I've been wrong a couple of times on this but not now...

I'll be holding court tomorrow night at Carnegie's Deli...

trust me, I really am not like the others...

See ya at post time...
