Santa Anita Park Race 6 - Race 6 - Maiden Special Weight
KOKOSAN (6) finished among the minor placings at Del Mar two back then lined up in tougher grade last time when fifth in the G1 Hollywood Derby at Del Mar (Turf) over 1811m. Should be parked just off the speed. Overdue and looks a great chance to open winning account. LEGAL HEIR (1) is fresh from a spell of ten weeks and did hit the frame when last resuming at this track (Turf) over 1609m. In a different yard now. Expecting a bright start for the new trainer. ROSTOVSKY (3) is back from a break of ten weeks. Raced below par at his only appearance last prep when sixth over 1710m at Del Mar (Turf). One to consider. LOVE'S CAUSE (4) is facing the starter for the first time. By Brody's Cause and hails from the R Baltas stable. Worth watching for a betting push.
