LARhage, honestly, I'd go with Lava Man if forced to choose today. Obviously, things can change in the next two months, but on August 21, that's my choice. Think this year's BCC is solid on top.

So bascially Lharge you think that that everyone should skip the JCGC and BCC and travel on out to Cali to run in some podunk race? See heres how it works, you have to send the horse to the races that matter to win HOY, the horses don't come to you.

My God, the horse is the first horse IN HISTORY to sweep the big three California races in the same year, he's undefeated, answered every call, and is the feel-good story of the year in racing (depending on Barbaro's outcome)....of course he's HOY if the voting was today! The only other horse that could be considered would be Barbaro. Could he beat the "mighty" (sic) east coast horses if he ships? I think he run them into the ground! It's just as valid to ask...could they ship to California and beat him?? Putting a horse down because a particular horse finished a non-threatening second to him is crazy...somebody always finishes second, even if his name is Hookwink...now there was a race to build stature (yet all anyone says is "Wow, Man O War once won a race by 100 lengths"). Lava Man is the on-track story of the year in racing and until proven otherwise, is the best horse in America...PERIOD!!!! You want some...come get ya some!...or, as Slick Ric says, "To be the man, ya gotta beat the man!"

He also won a grade 1 on TURF this year too.. but who'd he beat in that race? I agree. Give this horse some credit for his great accomplishments this year. We'll see how he stacks up at the end of the year.

I will be very surprised if FA is ever the horse that he once was. I would put Lava Man right at Invasor's ability. He may even be better than Invasor. Lava Man is a horse who consistently runs the last quarter of a mile in under 25 seconds on the dirt. On the turf, he is faster. In the Charles Whittingham, his last quarter of a mile was an unbelievable 22.9 seconds. Of course, his first half mile was much slower in the CW than it is in most of his dirt races.

And Lava Man is a gelding, why would they duck folks in the Breeders Cup Classic? It's not like they have something to gain by not running, and it's not like Slew City Slew is a super active sire anymore either.

It's great how folks can see the future...will be interesting to hear the excuses if Lava Man rolls across the finish line leading by open lengths in the BCC. Saying it "can't" happen or he "won't" run is the stuff of foolishness...whistling past the graveyard!
