Santa Anita Racing analysis- Thursday Feb 7, 2019- By Spencer Luginbuhl

Race 1

Pass

Race 2

1-2-6

#1 Victor’s Show: This 5-year-old gelding might be the lone speed with the rail and that’s always dangerous at lower levels. It looks like he is in line for a bad race the way is Beyers go 40-50-40-50 so this race should be a decline in the 40’s somewhat but with barely any other speed in the race I think he can control and will be gone.

#2 Irish Ballad: Terrible trainer 2 for 136 last year but this horses last two races were in the money at Bomber prices. In the latest race what is nice is that the horse was up close in a fast pace for the level and he still held on for third now he should be close to the pace again stalking the #1 if this horse is a big price again don’t let him beat you. Also, his last two races on the Beyer scale are better than our top pick.

Race 3

Pass

Race 4

4-5-2

#4 Vegas Strong Baby: This daughter of Union Rags took a nice jump up when routing for the first time and just missed by less than 2 lengths. Prat jumping off is a little unsettling but Trainer Richard Baltas has been doing phenomenal work with the bug boy who jumps on today Heriberto Figueroa 14 starts 29% win% with a 4$ ROI

#5 Sass Machine: Ever since this horse was claimed she has improved in both starts since the claim she also ran a nice improved top figure her first time routing. If it comes up wet as well her lone win was over a wet track.

Race 5

Pass

Race 6

1-4-7

#1 Starr Of Quality: This mare probably has two many starts and we know what her best race is but at the 40L N1X she had a couple of mid 80 Beyers that will get it done today. Trainer Bill Spawr has also been on a heater with limited starters hitting at almost 50%.

#4 Mo See Cal: she has been declining in the Beyers of late but she should be able to run a credible race she has good tactical speed and Trainer Peter Miller is 20%+ in all categories for today’s race.

Race 7

6-3-5

#6 Count Hu: Still lightly raced with only 5 starts. his one race on dirt was good finishing third in an allowance race. Now he drops and ships into a bottom class levels of winners and might be able to pull an upset

#3 Roaring Fork: He was up and on the pace last time out and is now his third start off a layoff. The last race Beyer fits here and he has a win over the track and the distance.
