Trying Brian

[golfer]

There were a bunch from yesterday (it seems the worse I do, the more tough trip horses I notice ).. but We'll start with Trying Brian from the 8th yesterday at Gulfstream. In the not so capable hands of Ariel Smith, (I will synopsize from here, you can see for yourselves)breaking from the 12 post, got out well, then proceeded to drop back while basically 12 wide... then moves up to be closer to the leaders, under wraps still 5 to 6 wide...continues to stay in that position through the turn, then lugs in and drops back again as the eventual winner passes on the outside, finally, when you thought that nightmare trip had done him in, he re-rallies (while all over the track), and manages to lose by a diminishing length.

oh yeah

Trying Bryan is now in the Margolis barn. I think you can expect a major upgrade with the rider. He is a bit of a monster but I wouldn't be surprised if he won next out for fun.

I don't have the TG fig from his 2nd race, but I believe he ran an 8 debut, the 2nd one should be similar... definitely one to keep an eye on. Thanks for the information.

Was waiting for ML odds before posting this. Trying Brian is 8-1 ML, from post 8. Romans 1 horse, Dr Googles Boogles is the known competition (to me, anyway), although he's been scratched a few times recently, for some reason. Anybody know 1st time Margolis stats?

The DRF has him at 16% thru 57 starts (ROI $1.62)
