Default Invasors Next challenger???????
Who does Team Pletcher have? Corinthan looks like a posibility to step forward and try him but I was wondering if Pletcher has one that is ready to blossom. Master comander is the one that comes to mind.

Some people might consider Fairbanks a challenger after running a 115 Beyer last out.

Maybe the horse who won the UAE Derby Asiatic Boy (sp). I hope he comes on over to the USA. Also, Discreet Cat when he gets healthy, except he will most likely be pointed to mile races and Invasor is a router type of guy. Other than that, lets hope some of the three year olds turn out to be pretty good and challenge Invasor in autumn.

Did they say what plans they have for him?

I honesty don't think anyone can touch him going a mile and a quarter.

Bernardini should come out of retirement, if Bernie were kept around for the DWC. He would of won hands down

As I said in the Fairbanks thread to the naysayers, loose lead my ass. A 115 is a horse that simply ran away with the race b/c the others couldn't catch up....I don't think he is nearly as good as Invasor but I'd like to see him run against Lava Man that's for sure.

i agreed with you in that thread and i still do fairbanks is a horse with a ton of improvment left in him, and i think hes going to be something special

Special I don't know about. But I think he can contend in Grade 1s this year...I do think that. Special I can't go with.
