if they let love of money jog on a loose lead - good-bye. two other speed types entered, if they go and make LOM work, he might feel the extra pounds late (123 vs 116 in pa derby). ml of 3-1 sounds fair. RHT can be brilliant, could win by five. as usual, low odds the issue. i think imperialism has a chance. mulhall does well bringing them back on three weeks rest, stats say a run in the "2.5" to "3.0" range is coming. has to beat two faster horses, and solis has to find a way to save a bit of ground around the second turn, so odds must be generous. i will key at ml of 6-1 or higher. castledale looks nice from post 4. has decent # power. i will toss in my creed underneath at long odds.

R7: longshot stab, #1 papi chullo. last race was a bit slow, but he finished nice. has a half sis by rizzi that ran fast going long. has tactical speed, and gets valenzuela from post 1. since the fast ones drew outside, i will use PC at ml of 20-1. $3.3 mio chekhov might improve a lot, but figures to lose some ground. a use underneath.
