He could make a quick $4.2 million in his next two starts if he were to fire big and stay in good form.....that is intriguing enough to try - although he may not want to see Discreet Cat and Invasor in the desert
The Sunshine race will actually be missing Lava Man as O'Neill will put him on the lawn in CA instead of trying to ship again. (He'll meet up with Miesque's Approval in that one per Marty Wolfson's plans..). So the Millions Classic makes sense. The outfit likes shipping to FL. They will not go to Dubai.

Yeah, I saw Weigelia ran at CRC yesterday....didn't do so hot in that race, but I see Mike ships down alot.

Hell, with Lava Man skipping the race, SNS will be the horse to beat for $1 million then....Brother Derek seems like the only real challenger of that caliber......The race will be full of Grade 3 horses like Texcess, etc.....not a tough spot for that kind of cash...

So you really think that if he fires big in the Sunshine Millions and is doing well that Trombetta wouldn't take a shot at $6 million in the desert with a gelding?....That'll be tempting......that is $360,000 in his pocket if the horse were to win it......
