Horse Racing: Today at Santa Anita, Apr. 25

Post Time 3 p.m.

Race 1 - 4 1/2 furlongs, Purse $56,000, Maiden special weights, Cal-breds, Fillies, 2-year-olds

2 City Ride - Mike Harrington barn has a good resume in 2-YO baby racing; used to be housed at Hollywood, now at Los Alamitos.

3 Sweet Mz. Poppet - Been working well and gets a solid gate rider in Agapito Delgadillo; watch the tote board for additional clues.

Long Shot - 6 Wacky Miss

Race 2 - 6 furlongs, Purse $23,000, Maiden claiming $30,000, 3-year-olds and up

7 Take a Risk - Of the ones with experience, he looks much faster than the rest; key is to keep an eye on the many FTS in here.

6 Stadtpark - From clever team of Paul Aguirre and Iggy Puglisi; they had a nice batting average at the just ended SA Winter meet.

Long Shot - 3 Live Lucky

Race 3 - 7 furlongs, Purse $21,000, Claiming $12,500, Fillies and mares, 3-year-olds and up

9 Addendum - Hard knocking mare has been a model of consistency; claimed by Jack Carava, is spotted for immediate results.

4 Eltoninadress - Ran a gutsy second first race off the claim by Jeff Mullins; repeat effort gives him a puncher’s chance versus tougher.

Long Shot - 6 Magic Number

Race 4 - 1 1/8th miles (turf, rail at 8 feet), $100,000 Last Tycoon, 3-year-olds and up

4 Rookie Sensation - Tight fit in a very hard stakes race; colt has still not hit his ceiling yet, most likely in turf routes.

5 Fire With Fire - Salty wire to wire win in the San Luis Rey; long winded sort could find himself on a soft early lead.

Long Shot - 3 Joelito

Race 5 - 6 furlongs, Purse $21,000, Claiming $12,500, 3-year-olds and up

2 Dunmore East - Claimed by Vann Belvoir and spotted nicely for quick results; can save every inch of ground under Tyler Baze.

4 Newfound Gold - Claimed by Ted West off a daylight win over cheaper; key vote for me is leading rider Rafael Bejarano taking the call.

Long Shot - 6 Carbonite

Race 6 - 6 1/2 furlongs (turf, rail at 8 feet), Purse $58,000, Allowance, Fillies and mares, 3-year-olds and up

3 Starry Skies - Been away 18-months, but showed good ability back then; has the back class, key is how fit for trainer Marty Jones.

9 Upbeat Mood - Another who showed a fondness for the hillside turf course; like the parking lot post with the rail 8 feet out.

Long Shot - 1 Hijra

Race 7 - 1 mile, Purse $58,000, Optional claiming $40,000, 3-year-olds and up

1 I Don’t Care Who - Nice work off the claim by Jeff Mullins; like the cut back in distance where he should finish better tonight.

5 Bettys Bambino - Horseplayers like undefeated horses; this gelding is untested, but shows a lot of potential, we’ll see.

Long Shot - 6 Garen

Race 8 - 1 mile (turf, rail at 8 feet), Purse $31,000, Maiden claiming $50,000, 3-year-olds and up

10 Kozani - Figures to be in front unless Rafael Bejarano can pull off a magic trick; will be helped by the turf rail out 8 feet.

6 Misdeed - Taking the biggest class drop in racing from MSW to maiden claiming; need not be much in a fairly mundance group.

Long Shot - 8 Rob’s Pal

Best Bet - 1 I Don’t Care Who (race 7)

Santa Anita Park Sunday - Picks/Winners/Mutuels, 17/5/$27.60; Long Shots, 9/0/$0; Best Bet, 1/0/$0
