I differ with your opinion. Was Lawyer Ron "juiced" when he was trained by Bob Holthus? In his victories, Holthus-McKee & Pletcher-Velazquez/Prado got Lawyer Ron to settle, focus, and win. LR was his own worst enemy with his rankness. Against inferior foes he could still win. When faced with top flight company, his rank behavior spelled defeat.

This thread should continue to celebrate Lawyer Ron as champion thoroughbred who had many fans across America. When he was "on", he was one outstanding athlete.
