Tiznow is one of my favorite horses of all time, I love the horse and his huge heart, he simply refused to lose in the "big one"! Having said that, Lava Man is having a better year AT THIS POINT than Tiznow ever did...in order to be mentioned in the same breath as one of the greats he would have to win two BCC's...plain and simple, but he may have that opportunity and it's wrong to make fun of the comparison just yet. Lets wait until his career is over! If one says, Lava Man compares to Tiznow at this stage of their careers (yes, I know Tiznow was younger but LM is a gelding, LM hasn't run in a BCC yet)...it is a valid comparison...if you say Lava Man is as great as Tiznow, it's a joke!
