He ran a pretty good 2008 Classic though. He admittedly sucked up and did tons less running than Curlin or the top 2 and was significantly worse than them, but still it was one of his better races.
He's always been overrated, but let's face it - the handicap division sucks on dirt. A solid horse like Tiago who can finish consistently is actually a meaningful figure in the sparse division.
On synthetic there are 5 times as many others who can be just as good for any given race, and when the talent goes world class he really has no shot to dream of winning(last year's suckup 3rd aside).
