Here is the chart for Lawyer Ron's maiden win at Keeneland...

http://www.kentuckyderby.com/2006/de.../chart_msw.pdf

This is the most underrated horse in the U.S. right now because everyone says he is overrated. How many times did he beat Steppenwolfer? How many? Three. What happened to Lawyer Ron in the Derby? He finished 12th. Logic would say that something had to have happened to him since that "slow" horse coming out of OP Steppenwolfer finished third and LR finished a distant 12th because LR is a much better horse than Steppenwolfer. Gee, could it be that Holthus had been running the horse into the ground with a chip in which he had surgery on immediately after the Derby? I wonder...
