Santa Anita Park Race 9 - Race 9 - Maiden Special Weight
MAGGLES MCGEE (2) was responsible for a solid effort last time out when second at this track (Turf) over 1308m, beaten one length. That run should have her rock-hard fit now. Will appreciate the longer journey now. HAVE STYLE (1) ran a much better race at her second outing last start to finish third over 1609m at this track after being prominent at the corner. Has her share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. BABY NEEDS SHOES (9) is a two-start maiden who returned last time and finished fourth at this track (Turf) over 1609m, beaten 4 lengths. Should progress from that last outing and poses a genuine threat. HUMIDITY (4) ran below expectations last time at this track (Turf), finishing eighth and beaten 10 lengths. Well placed to atone.

Third race start. First start 3rd of 11 at Del Mar on November 16 over 1106m, 3 len behind Final Table Lady with 55.5kg at $16.30. Went for a break before returning 2nd of 8 at Santa Anita on February 21 over 1207m, 6 len behind Meridian Mae with 55.5kg at $3.50. Fitter but others appeal more.
