But anyway, even if that race wasn't on his stoming grounds, what good is it to be taken seriously when you have a Cal Bred gelding?

If you must travel to try dirt ... why not the much shorter ship for the 300K Lone Star Mile at the end of April against a likely field of donkeys?

I don't buy that. If you are in the sport just to make money you are probably in the wrong business. If you own you occasionally have to take a risk and have some fun. You think that the connections of Lava Man don't wish he'd won outside of California and been taken more seriously?

I don't totally disagree with you.

However, if Lava Man had the Breeders Cup in So. Cal. I highly doubt he ever ships.
