Just curious, what makes him overrated?

I don't think he'll beat Curlin, but I hardly think it's clinically insane to say that he has a chance.

Much like Big Brown looked good beating up on nothing, so has Curlin this year. I love Curlin, but let's take a breath before we talk about him like he's some unbeatable monster. In just about every year in the past decade, he would merely be a very good handicap horse who would take some losses, not the hands down 'best horse in the world' as he's been repeatedly called.
