So lemme ask you this, whos the best horse that you feel that Lava Man has beaten this year? I can't wait to hear this one!!!!!

What difference does it make, Mike? My point isn't who he has or hasn't beaten. The point is he has done EVERYTHING he's been asked to with the exception of two bad races last year. The horse could run very well at Churchill for all you know. And right now, who will he meet in the Classic? Bernardini, Flower Alley, Invasor, etc? There may be 3 or 4 horses that are more talented than he is right now with Bernardini and Invasor included. Either way, he STILL has a shot at hitting the board. Would you argue with that?
