Overated / Underated... the anti-HOY Awards (so far...)
Okay I'm just curious..... who do you all think is the single most overated horse so far this year?
Underated? The only rule is you may only give ONE name in each category. Who wants to go first? (..... and remember, no fighting in the sandbox kids!)

Here I go (and I'll pick horses that WILL fall apart but haven't yet and horses that WILL be underappreciated): Overrated: Lava Man (when he leaves the precious West Coast he is doomed) Underrated: Napa Cat figured I'd throw in a 2yo who nobody is talking about right now but one that has CRAZY ability...won't be underrated if he wins the Bashford Manor though... Nevermind on Napa Cat........he isn't even nominated to the Bashford Manor which means that Steve is either waiting for Saratoga or he got hurt....I'll find out...he has Chase City for the Bashford Manor who will be tough but Minefield will be the favorite and I think Run Alex Run will be a tough little horse to catch on the lead at a good price...Also, BErnie Flint has a maiden named Unbridled Express that will be a very live sleeper from off the pace if he chooses to run this one in the Bahford Manor instead of going into a maiden race...he is nominated at least...

Hate to say it, but when I read the title the first name that came to mind for overrated was Lawyer Ron, and it pisses me off to say that because I have been touting him since January. As for underrated, I think Bernardini is better than the credit he receives (most likely due to the Barbaro injury).

Overrated: Flower Alley and Brother Derek
Underrated: Bushfire- she's been the best 3YO filly since the Tampa Oaks yet people were still discrediting her after the KY Oaks, when she was arguably the best, battling a fast pace and still running third, only to get passed by two deep closers. Last edited by JJP : 07-06-2006 at 09:23 AM.
