Rail Trip Likely Favorite for Mervyn Leroy Handicap

I caught a quick video of Rail Trip galloping at Hollywood Park on Thursday morning for trainer Ron Ellis.

The unbeaten Jump Start gelding will be looking for his 6th straight win and first graded stakes win in tomorrow's Grade 2, $150,000 Mervyn Leroy Handicap at Hollywood Park. He will once again face Dakota Phone, runner up to Rail Trip in last month's Santana Mile at Santa Anita.
