I dont consider any of these horses all that much better than the horses Lava Man has beaten.
Nice horse? Sure. Perhaps better than I think (wouldnt be the first or second time I was wrong about a horse), but to rank him higher than Lava Man at this juncture of the year based on beating those horses...I cant agree with.
If he beats Bernardini or Lava Man I will admit I am an idiot. I just dont think he will.

Again, I agree. We'll know more about Invasor in the JCGC. I know that Lava Man is the goods; he just may not be a good shipper. I think that he will get beaten in the Classic based on that fact. If Invasor and Lava Man faced each other out west and Invasor was a good shipper (which I think that he is?), I am very confident that Lava Man would win. That is not to take anything away from Invasor because he is an extremely nice animal and I think that he beat a dramatically improved Sun King in the Woodward.
