tha lava man thread....

I think the horse ran like most expected him to....he has never shipped and won away from Cali and there was no reason to believe he would all of the sudden start a new trend in what was against the hardest group of horses he had ever faced.

Frankly, he was simply too slow on the sheets anyway, and the two fastest horses in the race ran 1-2, and maybe the third fastest horse on the dirt in the race ran third even....

How Lava Man took more money than Invasor was a joke IMO...just shows you the influence of the heart over the knowledge of the casual bettor on the big race days.....
