Lawyer Ron is a bit of an enigma for the B.C. Classic. Thought he was one of the best horses going into the Derby, but discounted him from his post position with his running style. Today is a step towards the Classic for Lawyer Ron, but even if he's not up to the B.C. Classic horses he fits very well here. Remember he beat the Derby 3rd horse like a drum. He's at least in Blue Grass Cat's league and Blue Grass was way too much horse for Strong Contender.

I'm factoring Lawyer Ron upon where I rated him going into the Derby and he's proven at the abbreviated Super Derby distance and does like the track. I don't know what he'll go off at, but 6-5 seems very fair to me. Maybe he'll be much less, I dont know. I'm reserving opinion upon how he'll fair in the Classic until after the race. I do think he is going to fire a new top today.
