Santa Anita Park Race 9 - Race 9 - Maiden Special Weight

JOHN METCALFE (4) was well fancied last start over 1609m at this track (Turf) when ninth, beaten 16 lengths. Blinkers go on today; looks a top chance. DR FILKINS (1) was in the firing line on the corner and progressed nicely last start to finish a close second over 1609m at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. ROBIN OLDS (8) ran well on debut last start to finish third over 1609m at this track (Turf) in a tougher race. Tricky draw to overcome but he is a strong chance. CHIEF RESIDENT (5) was in the money on debut before finishing fourth last time, beaten 3.5 lengths over 1106m at Santa Anita (Dirt). Has upside and can measure up.

Recent form sound. Most recently 3rd in a small field at Santa Anita on March 6 over 1308m, 7 len behind Galloping Ghost carrying 55.5kg at $3.50. The start before that 2nd of 7 at Santa Anita on February 7 over 1207m, 4.5 len behind Tommy Norris with 55.5kg at $14.20. Definite winning chance. Keep safe.
