I know you are the king of trips around here but I am starting to develop an anti trip bias in my handicapping, there are not many trips that seem to go unnoticed to the sharper outfits and trips in general need to be in context.

The best trip plays to me are horses with little form to go on and one bad trip leads to huge odds, or horses off layoff where a bad trip tricks people into thinking the horse was not right.

I hope that makes sense, believe me I am one who watches and notes a lot of trips but they never have been the bonanza that other factors have been.
