Beat shippers from out East, too - Perfect Drift, Good Reward (okay, any decent dirt horse can beat him), Who's Crying Now. Have just one caveat for you - like his sire and damsire, Lava Man is better at 5 than he was at 4 than he was at 3. Horses continue to mature until they are 7 in most breeds. Many TBs are able to mature at a faster rate, but some follow the species norms more closely.
