Lava Man

[Gander]

Thats basically what I said. Everybody is really quick to denote the east coast contingent as the horses to beat. Doesnt matter what year it is, its always just assumed that the best horses are always in the east and I couldnt disagree more this year. Its not like there are 3-4 monsters in the east that the connections of Lava Man have been shrewdly avoiding. I dont think Doug O" Neill is going too far out of his way to shy away from Sun King and Flower Alley! Invasor is a pretty nice racehorse but you have to admit it didnt hurt to have Sun King as the one to hold off at the wire and not a horse who likes to go by. Hes about one more of those races away from becoming Perfect Drift.
