Lava Man was another who ran his best races on the dirt.
Panty Raid ran in the GI Alabama...Lady Joanne beat her in that race soundly. Then they met up again in the Spinster, and Panty Raid barely beat Lady Joanne. Lady Joanne could run on both surfaces well, but was better on the dirt. I think a horse's breeding has a lot to do with it.
