My first impression after the two races was that we may have 2 serious threats in the BC, but the more I thought about it, Borrego and Imperialism won because of the obscene early pace in both of these races. 22 and change and 44 and change in Imperialism's win and 22 and change and 45 and change in the Pacific. Lava Man managing to hold on for show was amazing to me because that horse was completely baked. Looked like he was going to have to be vanned off from exhaustion after the race. I doubt we see him for some time. Of the 2 of these that I was more impressed by though, I would have to go with Imperialism. Coming back off that long layoff and still taking the win, even though the pace totally favored him is still a nice accomplishment. I'm hoping he can get back to his old form so we will have another legit handicap horse.
