Re: Ogden Phipps (756 Views)

Weight adjusted he's right there and should get a good trip, so at 30-1 I wouldn't talk you off him. My issue is he's coming off a top on only 3 weeks rest and I expect a regression today. I also think that while he may get the lead he will have to work for it, as JV has to be looking to do the same with Channel Cat. I'll definitely be using Melvin underneath, but not on top.

Overall I really like DS to take this. His comeback was rock solid and I think he'll like the additional ground today. With a cozy inside slot I expect him to kick hard in the lane and be tough for anyone else to run down. The value will be keying him in all the horizontals with some other horses I like who will be decent prices.
