TAMPA 11th: Tampa Bay Derby (G3), 3yo, 8.5f (DD, Hi-5)

This is a curiosity given the OP misfire by Patch Adams and the seasonal debuts and blinkering of both Chads (Chancer McPatrick/Hill Road) and Filoso. Latched on to Hill Road as BCup exotics player and hold 56-1 Derby future wager ticket, so getting him into the Downs gate would be nice. Am tempered today by Brown saying he would have liked a couple more works with him and 4-1 isn't exactly a number that entices. I legitimately am unsure of how this race will be run, so I'm struggling with a definitive approach towards it's outcome. Dylan Davis reunites with Filoso and between his previous mounts on him and the blinkers, figures for the kind of mid-pack stalking trip that wins here. Price is right..

Best Value: #5 Filoso 15-1 7th
Next Best: #3 Hill Road 4-1 3rd
Exotics Use: #2 Chancer McPatrick 8/5 2nd
Super Add: #1 Owen Almighty 5-1 WON ($7.80)
