YTD Returns at equity L/S (non-pod shops)

(posted some returns below) Alright I may get monkey shit for this... but does anyone know of any equity L/S funds outside of the pod shops that are positive this year? 

Just saw a twitter post with fund returns  and was curious if anyone is up YTD outside of the pod shops. Honestly surprised that candlestick is down so much with the citadel heritage and assumed they ran more market neutral/ less net exposure - maybe just bad a year?  Also Dorsal down - they are market neutral as well right?
