Early summer, I thought that Garcia was the best rider in NY and Maragh was a bit better than ok. Presently, I feel that Maragh probably has more up side than any of these guys. He rides the draft tip better than anyone I've seen, and actually seems to have a brain. He's a perfect trip machine from the inside (especially on the turf).
