I give respect to Lava Man now. He is to me the modern day John Henry because he is as effevtive on the dirt and on the turf. I hope he sweeps the california big races this year like he did last. What a feat that would be!!!!

PG,

Honestly, I stopped trying to beat him, in California anyway, after he cost me the Magna 5 last year.. (The Magna 5 where Miesque's Approval won the Sunshine Millions Turf.. at 50-1 or whatever).

The only play that makes less sense than betting against Lava Man in California, is betting on Lava Man anywhere else.

Wilko isn't going to be entered in the big cap.
I don't think Dollase knows where he's going next, but I'm sure they'd like to find a spot for him to be competitive and it clearly isn't graded stakes races.

Early reports in DRF said it was a go, but it does look like they changed their minds from the latest article, thanks.
