FRIDAY STRATGEY SANTA ANITA

                       BANK UPDATE AFTER THE RACES

RACE 1

Friday´s card is not a card with world beater´s....The speed most likely will be Sambora. She stretches out to two turns with speed....might get a easy lead and hard to collar down the lane. Katy´s Kitty looks to get a good trip behind the pacesetter Sambora. She runs better on dirt and is improving.  Tripped The Light should get a perfect trip behind both Sambora and Katy´s Kitty. Good Friday Gal should pick up the pieces.

                1. Tripped The Light...Rosario trips the scales
                2. Katy´s Kitty....improving
                3. Sambora..... speed a plus

RACE 2

Down The hill in this three year old allowance race for fillies. The speed looks to be Woebegon and Lasso From El Paso. Both fillies will most likely contest the early pace. As for Woebegon she tries the turf for the first time. She does have turf pedigree by Montbrook...A.P. Indy. Indigo River makes her U.S. debut for trainer Jeff Mullins..... Rosario rides her. Take note that she beat Wrote in her maiden win....Wrote won the Breeders Cup Juvenile Turf..... the filly to beat in this race. She looms very large for the win. My Kentucky Rose goes for the hat trick... do not dismiss her as this is a tough talented field of fillies.

              1. Indigo River
             

             




RACE 3

Age restricted suspect claimer going one mile---very hard to trust anyone in this field. Orbach gets back to his age group after facing much better....but what happen in last race....over his head I guess. The horse to beat with short odds. Julio sends out Wild Revenge.... no monster he is... claimed by Canani.... will be bet today. Fifth Dimension....the question is what direction is he going down or in a race where he will fire as a win canidate. Star Dancer M.D. has speed to try to steal this race on the front end. Hoffman send out King Cola a horse I have bet in the past.

                  1. Orbach
                  2. King Cola
                  3. Star Dancer MD








RACE 4

This race is a very weak low level maiden sprint race with many pretenders and few contenders. Jack Reacher the short price favorite on the rail....the rail this year has not been kind........  Just Meteor drops big time from running on the turf in a maiden special weight race to face much softer company here. He looks to be the fastest horse in this race. The one to beat. Another contender is Warren´s Tiger who comes in fresh with solid works under tow.... beware!


                1.  Just Meteor
                2.  Jack Reacher
                3.  Warren´s Tiger

RACE 5

A three year old maiden special weight race at the distance of one mile on the turf. A good betting race here. The import from Europe She Spirit Di Su comes in fresh after two excellent races over the pond. She got beat by Farraaj who finished third in the Breeders Cup Juvenile Turf race. She has some nice solid works for trainer Simon Callaghan. La Malaguena sired by the great English Channel has too excellent sprints under her belt....she should relish this distance....She is razor sharp and in form...she warrants respect for the win here. Love stealer has excellent turf pedigree...trained by Art Sherman....she is knocking at the door for a win. My Sweet Candy..loved the pedigree .....can run on any surface..... she is a major player......do not dismiss her. She is bred for one mile...Sabouli trained by Mike Puype should move forward after a good looking try on turf last time out. Victor takes the call.... I really like this turf pedigree.... she should love the distance... A major player at double digit odds.

           
            1. She Spirit Di Su
            2. Lovestealer
            3. Sabouli

RACE 6

A suspect cheap race routing over the main track. Top Feeling at three to one morning line ....won then returns five weeks later for Victor Garcia....I always like this trainer.....but not a positive sign...dropping him to this low level...since I will sided with Victor..... Rocket Roan the shipper looks ready to outrun his odds.... a touch of back class....and on a upswing with form...lot´s to like here. Joyful Success stretches for Jerry Hollendorfer.....pedigree suggest no problem as Martin Garcia who has been red hot rides....

               1. Joyful Success
               2. Rocket Roan
               3. Top Feeling

RACE 7

A optional claimer N2X for fillies and mares sprinting on the turf. Good betting race with few pretenders ...a very wide open race. The speed looks to be Long Lake Krista....... come catch and might just try to steal this race on the front end. Whisper Louise wheeled back in 12 days adds the blinkers. She goes from route to sprint where I expect she is a better sprinter then router. Talktoomuch a eight year old fresh off the bench....she has won before coming off a layoff. Cute N Sassy if fit should make a big statement here....she looks to fire fresh for Richard Mandella.... player...Catchy Tune seems to have a hard time breaking from the gate....she needed time off...to get her act together... if she break cleans she has won on this course one year ago... do not just dismiss her.


              1.  Cute N Sassy
              2.  Whisper Louise
              3.  Long Lake Krista










RACE 8

Come Catch King Of Swing......if he breaks cleaning will try to steal this race. He was the betting favorite last time out before rearing at the gate losing his jockey. John Sadler sends out the class dropper Candy Sweetheart.... expect much better facing this company. David Hoffman sends out the class dropper Aldadino who looks very live as a win candidate. Melody Conlon a underrated trainer sends out Remember Mike who just lost the heartbreaker at this level last time out. Cheers To Boogie figures as he has been knocking on the maiden door.

                1. King Of Swing
                2. Candy Sweetheart
