Santa Anita Park Race 3 - Race 3 - Maiden Special Weight
ROMANTIC RIDE (7) turned in a sound effort last time but found one better at this track (Turf) over 1207m, beaten 0.1 lengths. That run should have him rock-hard fit now. Blinkers come off now. Sure to go well. SIRNAMI (4) started at $5.80 last time and ran below expectations, finishing ninth and beaten 9 lengths at this track (Turf) over 1207m. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. BOOKED CLUBHOUSE (8) is back after a break of 12 weeks. At the last run before the layoff he finished sixth over 1609m at Del Mar (Dirt). Leading player on best figures - bold showing expected. BENNY AND THE JET (3) was in contention on the bend and finished second last time over 1207m at this track (Dirt) when resuming from a spell, beaten 0.8 lengths. Will trim down second-up. Suitably placed so anticipating another forward showing.
