Invasor overpowers Classic field
Invasor's victory was not even five minutes old, and the ESPN crew was debating whether Javier Castellano moved too quickly on Bernardini. Hogwash!!!! Invasor was just the better horse today. Give him credit. He's now 9 of 10 lifetime and probably deserves to win Horse of the Year. Bernardini and Castellano didn't do anything wrong, it was Invasor's brilliance today that should be celebrated.
Lava Man? It appears that the verdict is now in -- he's just not a good shipper. He didn't appear to have any excuses. Brother Derek had to set too quick a pace and had nothing left in the stretch. Strong field. Good race. Now the Breeders' Cup heads to Monmouth Park in 2007. I can't do any worse than I fared today at the betting windows. I picked Invasor to win in today's edition, but my heart and money went with Lava Man and Brother Derek.
