Santa Anita Park Race 2 - Race 2 - Maiden Special Weight
WOLF HILL (2) is poised to win after placing at her last four outings, most recently when second over 1609m at this track (Dirt) when she was in the firing line all the way. Has her share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. BROOKLYN BLONDE (5) resumed from a spell last start with a sound second over 1308m at this track (Dirt) after being in the firing line on the bend. Likely improver with bright prospects. MASS (3) is on debut for the M W McCarthy stable. Three-year-old filly by Not This Time from Amen Sista. Keep a close eye out for a positive market move. GETTING CLOSER (1) was beaten 9 lengths into third at this track two starts ago then finished 5 lengths from the winner in fifth last time at Santa Anita Turf (Turf). Will drift back but wind up late. Has ability and rates among the chances.
