Until the last few preps for the classic are ran, I'll withhold my judgement on whether or not I think he can actually WIN the classic. Right now, it doesn't make much sense to pick the winner until the field is announced and we see the rest of the Classic contenders run their preps. Don't you think so?

I have a hard time understanding how you can hold it against him that he lost by shipping east last year. If I recall, wasn't the horse having hoof problems and wasn't 100% to begin with? I'm willing to give him another chance to redeem himself at CD.

I don't need to see PP's or entries to know Lava Man is a legit contender for the Breeders Cup Classic.

Of course he's a legit contender. The question is... do you think he can WIN the whole damn thing? I DO need to see PP's and entries before I make that call.

Based on this year's form? Of course I think he can win the thing. I think Bernardini could be the goods and could also win, same with Invasor. Shoot, I wouldn't even put Sun King out of it if he continues with his recent form. I've been on the Flower Alley bandwagon forever, and I still think he'll be a contender once we get to BC day.

Would you make your pick right now without seeing PP's? 5 horses can't win it. So which one would you pick?
