You're obviously kidding about the second part, so I won't ask about that one. Funny though.
None of the three best riders base in Cali right now, in addition to Dominguez and Castellano, John Velazquez is right there as well.

Put me in the camp that believes Rosario is overrated.

Rosario reminds me an awful lot of Dominguez when he was @ Delaware. He's young and granted makes his fair share of mistakes that you'd expect from a young jock, but he seems to possess that same uncanny ability to get horses to settle under him, coupled with a strong knowledge of race dynamics and placing his mount where he needs to be... Very few jocks actually have the ability to move a horse up, but I'd put all 5 in the discussion, with Rosario being the only Cali representative.
