Before anyone can attempt lists like miraja2's ... you'd need to first outline and define some things.

For instance, would 'most overrated' mean most overrated at a certain point in their racing career - or 'most overrated' for a career as a whole?

And - most overrated by who? Overrated by pretty horsey tards and slapdick handicappers on the Internet? Or, overrated by solid and respect worthy racing people like Jon White, who just don't have the most complete set of handicaping skills out there? Or, overrated by the most skilled type of players who simply should have known better?

A cool and rare case was Xtra Heat - who was massively overrated through the first half of her 3yo season - but she developed into a sprinting beast in the second half of her 3yo season and had a sensational career for a female sprinter.
