HORSE RACING

TODAY AT SANTA ANITA PARK

By Richard Eng

Post Time 1 p.m.

Race 1 – 1 mile, Purse $34,000, Maiden claiming $75,000, 3-year-olds

El Supremo – Key to this pick is he exits a key race; both Dee Tee Bee and Kinsale King won their next time out.

Winning Yield – Adam Kitchingman switches him back to synthetic surface; one of three dropping from MSE to maiden claiming.

Long Shot – Stag On The Run

Race 2 – 6 furlongs, Purse $22,000, Maiden claiming $40,000, Cal-breds, Fillies and mares, 3-year-olds and up

Lots of Sunshine – Been favored in both career starts; 5-YO maiden mare has tactical speed to sit a perfect trip.

Warren’s Cookie – Ran a better than looked debut; will be overlooked because she earned a low Beyer speed figure.

Long Shot – Classic Demand

Race 3 – 1 1/8th miles (turf, rail at 24 feet), Purse $41,000, Claiming $40,000, Fillies and mares, 4-year-olds and up

Sports Edition – Taking a small, but significant, class drop to face these; Gary Sherlock seems to win only at big odds.

Exclusive Danielle – Speedball should be aided by the turf rail out 24 feet; Noi is the only mare who can challenge early.

Long Shot – Noi

Race 4 – 1 1/16th miles, Purse $21,000, Maiden claiming $32,000, Fillies, 3-year-olds

True Suggestion – Tyler Baze exits to ride the chalk, but this filly still has a big shot; should get value from this barn.

Mud Sweat ‘n Tears – Logical chalk off a solid effort last time; bullet workout at Hollywood may show that she is ready.

Long Shot – Quaint Lass

Race 5 – 6 1/2 furlongs, Purse $28,000, Claiming $25,000, Fillies, 3-year-olds

Almacita – Sneaky pick in that she has bugboy Campos riding for Mike Mitchell; the entire card, so far, is full of have nots.

Madame Kiawah – Tepid chalk in a real dart throw race; Garrett Gomez and Jeff Mullins point to a live wire on the tote.

Long Shot – Rapid Goose

Race 6 – 6 1/2 furlongs (turf, rail at 24 feet), Purse $48,000, Maiden special weights, Cal-breds, Fillies and mares, 3-year-olds and up

Risk Addiction – Take a chance on this speedball with the turf rail out 24 feet; she may not want to go far, but she is fast.

Sensitive Soul – Started slow, finished fast, in her career debut; Dan Hendricks babies typically improve with more racing.

Long Shot – Samantha’s Rule

Race 7 – 6 1/2 furlongs, Purse $52,000, Allowance, Fillies and mares, Cal-breds, 3-year-olds and up

Sangay – Away 5-months since a remarkable try after missing the break; Solis will use an alarm clock in the starting gate.

Witchy Meeting – Consistent sort has only one bad race on Gold Rush day; congrats to the Mig for winning the Woolf Award.

Long Shot – Suziqcutie

Race 8 – 6 furlongs, Purse $15,000, Claiming $10,000, 4-year-olds and up

Hemet – Ran a winning race last time for this lowest class level; tactical speed to sit a trip and grind it out late.

Dark Past – Speedy sort was scorched on a wicked fast pace last time; he’s better than that, must be used judiciously.

Long Shot – Monarcho Polo

Best Bet – Lots of Sunshine (race 2)

Santa Anita Sunday- Picks/Winners/Mutuels, 19/5/$56.60; Long Shots, 9/2/$23.80; Best Bet, 1/0/$0
