Probably Bernardini, although I think that Lava Man deserves it more...

I have no idea who would win it. I would say Lava Man deserves it more than Bernardini if they both lose on BC Day. But Henny Hughes could win it if he wins the sprint.

I brought this question up the other day-

What if Sun King wins it? He's the only one I can think of, beside if a Euro Invader were to win the Classic. Before you guys destroy me...

Here's my reasoning. Sun King had run very competitive vs Invasor. In a race where you got all the candidates in one race (unless one comes down with a case of hoof bruising AKA Stud Fee Fever)- And Sun King wins...? Could you not make an argument for him?

As it stands today, I'd give it to Bernardini, but we'll know fo sho after November 4th.

If Bernardini or Lava Man hit the board then they would still be the favorites for HOY.
