Steve Matthews' Aqueduct selections for Sunday, Nov. 16
Best bet: COILED (4)
Best value: ROSWELL (8)
FIRST: Sequential was an even fourth in first start since four-month absence; forward move predicted. Kavanaugh runs late and drops; dangerous. Momentum Files, an uncoupled barn mate of top selection, returns to dirt in first start since claimed.
SECOND: Inonit is training with a purpose and drops into maiden claimer; weakness of field helps. Carlin Contention fired 3-furlong bullet since last start. Lucky Dragon is riding a forward line on the numbers.
THIRD: Fast Market tallied swift late-pace figure when a game second in last; more to give. Peak Hype has won two of last three; very playable. It Ain't Two exits sprints and could make the early lead with heads-up handling.
FOURTH: Coiled made sustained rally to win last at Laurel; tight work tab in the interim seals the deal. Spirit Prince is rested and can win from on or off the pace. Exact Estimate makes first start since claimed by Brad Cox; must consider.
FIFTH: Credit History was compromised by front-end duel in last; softer flow predicted. Ottinho, from a dam that has thrown four winners, debuts for Chad Brown; could be the goods. Fightforallegiance was a non-stressful fourth in first start; don't ignore.
SIXTH: Marketplaceofideas fits Chad Brown's signature pattern; primed to roll. Tight Line was a strong second after slow start and wide trip last out; dangerous. Channel Check should be aided by cutback to shorter route; very interesting.
SEVENTH: Oversubscribed is another Brown-trained runner that is rested and working with a purpose. Malleymoo, also from Brown stable, consistently fires solid efforts. Spinning Colors is speedy and could prove very tough to collar on a soft lead.
EIGHTH: Roswell owns a sit-and-pounce style and could receive ideal pace setup. With the Angels is 5-for-5 and looms a certain underlay; your move. Brzina could play out as the speed of the speed; worth long look.
NINTH: Pookie should pack amplified wallop with cutback to 9 furlongs. Racing Colors gets class relief after even sixth in last; very interesting. Cynane owns a win, three seconds and a third from last five starts; must consider. Trail of Gold owns fast figures and is working sharply; right in the thick of this.
