I <3 Invasor.

But I also think Discreet Cat is going to be a tough, tough opponent.

Tough call but I'm leaning slighty towards Discreet Cat.

In his own backyard against a horse he's beaten before Discreet Cat for me. Alot of money about for Invasor of late though

Top 3 for me :

Discreet Cat
Kandidate
Invasor

-why Kandidate? check out his record over in dubai and his running style. Even Sheikh Mohammed admitted to being worried about the Clive Brittan trained horse saying that if K poaches a soft lead going into the final turn - 3 lengths is a lot of ground to make up with a horse that has proven form over the surface and trip.

And at 25-1 worth a small ew

I *think* it's being shown on ABC.

<a href='http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/horse/index' target='_blank'>Yep, it's on ABC.</a> 2:30 pm Eastern time.

Your best bet is the net for information - the races will be LONG over before ABC shows them.

Well, yes. But I always like to watch them on The Boy's big ass TV...but that's just me.

I'm betting ntra.com will have recaps/highlights/video up pretty quick also.

Awww, Lava's sis! Somebody buy her for me :lol:

As for the world cup, clearly after his smashing win on the turf Lava Man is going to sneak himself in the WC field and win by 100 lengths as everyone stares in awe.

Barring that though, it's all about Eeen-va-sorrrrrrrr! Let's have some love for Premium Tap though, gotta love a horse who runs with his tounge sticking out like that.
