Lava Man in Native Diver 12/12
http://www.bloodhorse.com/horse-raci...source=twitter
Crossing my fingers for ya big guy. Another nominee that's slightly less of a blast from the past--Square Eddie. Others include: High Court Drama, Cigar Man, Deal Breaker, Mast Track, Neko Bay, One Track Mind, Richard's Kid, Times Gone By, Tres Borrachos, Viscount and Whatsthescript. |

Although I sincerely hope he wins....
The most popular California bred since Best Pal is not going to be anywhere near a playable price. Maybe he'll be 2/1 at best. |

Of course I don't look at the PPs, but I know Lava Man's and logically he is not going to win off this layoff. Proudinsky would be my pick with LM and Acclamation neck and neck behind (I hope).

I like Acclamation to win and Lava Man to run 2nd but I wouldnt mind it the other way around either

Perhaps Lava Man really isn't that far off from the horse he was in his glory years.
Perhaps that was a better field than he usually faced, and he was maybe a bit short. Then again, maybe the blood found on both his hind legs after the race means something. I don't think he ran as bad as most others seem to think, though that last 1/8th was weak. I never really saw Lava Man as the type of horse who could come home as quickly as they did in the race today. |

Doug O'neil and the connections must be proud of today's accomplishment. They should be happy that Lava Man did outrun one horse today....the new John Henry statue. |
