So if you are going by just those 2 races, which I think is a bad idea, then yes Lava Man is a horrible shipper. I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt and quite frankly the only horse he has to beat in my opinion is Bernardini.
And let's not forget Lava Man shed his frog in the Japan race and they said he left a bloody trail coming off the track, that is a painful occurence for a horse, they don't all do it, but when they do it's a yucky mess.
