When a horse runs light years below their steady and consistant form ... it's typically a sign that something is wrong, not a sign that they're last race was overrated.

I always thought Macho Uno was overrated, of the 3 that came out of that BC Juvenile I thought Street Cry was the best horse, his problem was he had problems staying healthy. In the breeding shed he has been the most prolific and we certainly saw glimpes of just how talented he was in the DWC and The Foster. When it comes to Point Given there are always 2 differing views, the most glaring weakness on his record in my mind is he never faced any real competition, he was retired at the time to the ol suspensory injury or something like that, sounded a little dubious to me at the time.
