Okay, well please tell me how the East Coast horses are when they ship out West? Or are the East Coast horses too good to ship out west? Its the East Coast bias thing going on again on this board. It will never change.

When Saint Liam ran a dud out in California, he was excuse for it, it was blamed on the track surface. But when Lava Man was up the track in the Jockey Club Gold Cup last year, he is deemed an inferior and overrated west coast horse. Regardless of what he has done this year, all anyone ever brings up is that Belmont race. Oh by the way Flower Alley was terrible in that race too. But he gets excused for it because of where he is based and who his trainer is. Blah! I dont wanna hear this jibberish anymore.

And I didn't bring it up either Gander...

It will always be this way. Now Y'all know I am a FL girl so I really don't have a bias, I like a horse for the sake of the horse.

I am now rooting for Lava Man to do well just to disprove the doubters, but I have a feeling even if he loses by a nose, it will still be "He can't run outside of Cali"
