Santa Anita Park Race 9 - Race 9 - Claiming

PICKING IT UP (4) wasted no time getting off the mark on debut over 1408m at Del Mar (Dirt) 19 months ago and has not appeared since. Promising type who can measure up again. MOBE TOWN (2) broke his maiden four starts back and has not been far away since, most recently when beaten 0.3 lengths into second over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Likely to push forward and race on the pace. Expecting a bold showing. THALES (5) just missed last time when 0.1 lengths away in second at this track (Dirt) over 1106m. Leading player again. CAROL'S COMIC (1) proved too strong two runs ago but couldn't follow that up last time out when sixth over 1106m at this track, beaten 6 lengths. Worth plenty of thought.

Form hard to fault. Most recently raced on speed throughout when 2nd of 11 at this track on May 27 over 1106m, 0.1 len behind L'enfant Dit carrying 57kg at $32. Before that 4th of 9 at this track on May 4 over 1207m, 5.5 len behind Rogue Son with 57kg at $10.20. Not far away of late. Worth including.
