I think Lieutenant Ron will be the top 3yr old if Big Brown or Casino Drive falter or just retire. It is hard to fall in love with a graeme hall but kiaran mclaughlin seems to think he is his best horse since Invasor.

He's obviously very talented but all things considered I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for him to put together a string of races. However, you are definitely right that he belongs on any list of the possible 3YO stars of the second half of the season.

2ND half star-keep Motovato on list
positives, trainer, breeding, speed
negatives, possibly one hit wonder-but I doubt it

Motovato and Repenting can have a match race to determine who the most drugged up 3-year-old in the land is.
