What do you normally do in situations like that? I guess with the main track being synth it sort of forces his hand about what kind of surface to run on, unless he ships, but the drop in for a tag bothers me. Sure, maybe it's where he belongs, but since he owns and bred I figured he might give him another shot before the drop.
Hoss, I definitely understand your concern, but he looks to sit a nice trip right behind Parody and then take over late. Roussel did this with regularity last year if I remember correctly, so don't be discouraged about the drop. I'm expecting him to go off in the 9-5 range. Good luck this afternoon.
