i'm not saying flower alley got lost, but maybe he didn't pay as much attention, maybe he thought flower alley was doing so well that he was on auto pilot with him.

gotta say, i appreciate the likes of lava man and his campaign this year, rather than soft flower alley and his....maybe this year will show people that going too lightly is wrong, moderation is the key. not too much, not too little.

still waiting for lava man to win outside of california and he last race wasnt as good as it looked. he was all out to beat Ace Blue. He's vulnerable in the pacific classic.
