Unfortunatly you take comments way out of context. Cunningham was very correct in saying that Lava man is the David to Bernardini being Goliath. That does not mean that people will not bet on "David" to win, they will, he will be second or third choice depending on how Invasor trains up to the race (in my opinion Lava Man will be the second choice). But the Bern' will be the clear favorite.
Lava Man also has a chance, if Bernardini stumbles or gets boxed in or simply runs like Point Given did on Derby day, Lava Man (or Invasor) should win. If Bern' runs a clean race, he will be tough but Bernardini is again, in my opinion, the better horse.
Also, people will doubt Lava Man because he is running outside of California. Not to take away any credit from Lava Man, because he is a very good horse who is a Grade 1 winner on turf and dirt, but he may be in over his head against Bernardini.
