My pick in this one would be COACH RYAN. I think he could sit a stalk and pounce trip. The cutback to 7 panels could also aid him as he'll be charging home, roping in the front runners. The fact that a red hot Amoss is his conditioner can only bode well, 3rd off the positive trainer switch. Looking for an improve off of his last two over this strip and his numbers are headed that way.
One horse I wouldnt touch with an enemies money is THE DARP. If he's good enough, I'll let him beat me, but at no way would I touch him at his expected low odds. I know he has a big class edge over the field, but when a horse loses some of his early footing just as he has, its usually not a good sign. Again, he takes a class plunge and maybe the freshening did him well, but I am inclined to look elsewhere.
TRI- Coach Ryan, Sinister, and War Ruler. Add Niobrara for the quad.
