For overrated performance I would say Circular Quay in the LaD, they don't set up any better than that, was allowed to loaf early on.
I guess I would add Great Hunter's Bob Lewis win to my impressive list.

Curlin in the Rebel. A dominating performance by a runner who took command over the race and the track. Did he even breathe hard? I believe I remember that his run out was even impressive.

I'd probably say Curlin in the Rebel and Any Given Saturday in the Tampa Derby.

I would also put Curlin #1, with both Tampa Bay derby performances in second.
