I'm glad you asked him that Steve
I don't think turf journalists properly scrutinize trainers
and I suppose it is because they don't have to talk to the press
as they do in an NFL, NBA, MLB, or White House situation

Overrated: Lawyer Ron- just never was very fast by the figures

Underrated: Showing Up- though he is gaining respect, what he was able to do on a short schedule in the spring and then the overwhelming win on turf are indicators of a very high class colt.

I almost thing Brother Derek is underrated today as opposed to being overrated a couple of months ago. He is being totally dismissed by everyone and I still believe he has some good days ahead.

TOTALLY agreed re: BD. Couldn't have said it better myself.
