Santa Anita Park Race 7 - Race 7 - Allowance Optional Claiming

SON OF A BIRCH (10) resumed last start over 1308m at this track (Turf) and showed little early speed, settling well back but hitting the line hard to finish third, beaten 1.5 lengths. A repeat of the latest effort will see him in the finish again. DHITJARI (5) is back from a five months spell and he does run well first-up, including a win over 1500m at Mulheim at the start of last prep. Winning chance while fresh. SUPERSONIC BLUE (4) is back from a eight months spell and he does run well first-up, including a win over 1308m at this track at the start of last prep. Makes plenty of appeal. NESSO'S LASTHARRAH (1) was never really a threat when resuming last start over 1811m in the G3 San Gabriel Stakes at this track (Turf), finishing 7 lengths from the winner in 11th. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Can feature in the finish.
