The point of racing is to win races and to make money. The two sort of go hand in hand. Who cares where hes raced, who cares who he races against, who cares who is better, who cares about anything when it comes to Lava Man. Lava Man is a gelding so it doesnt matter. All that matters is the horse wins when he goes to the gate. He makes money for the connections. Who cares if he gets beat by an East Coast horse or from a horse in Europe. Point is that the horse wins and makes money. Enough said.
