The Lawyer Ron of that year would've hammered Weak Contender/Strong Pretender if not for a bozo ride. Yet, I wonder how much juice it took to get this guy to run the way he did under Pletcher. Too bad, nonetheless (it's not like the horse is injecting itself). Equine science needs to focus LESS on performance enhancement (i.e. DRUG) and MORE on how to better handle colic.
