He at least was pretty solid ... there have been some pretty hyped horses that were downright terrible.
I would the say most overhyped horse - that actually turned out to be a great horse - was without question Xtra Heat.
She would be the opposite of this list. I was so sick about people blabbing about her - and swore Victory Ride would kill her in the Test Stakes.
VR won the Test ... but Xtra Heat was light years the best horse in the race the way it was run .. and she just basically became the Godzilla of female spritners from that race on.
