Santa Anita Park Race 3 - Race 3 - Starter Optional Claiming
DECAPO (2) returns from a layoff of ten weeks. Scored over 1308m at Los Alamitos at the start of last prep. Capable of playing a major role. GREY'S BOY (3) raced close to the lead before clearing out to score an effortless 2.25 lengths win over 1207m at this track (Turf) last time. Going well and should give a bold sight again. UNIVERSAL SOUND (4) came home strongly last start to finish second, beaten 0.3 lengths, over 1308m at Turfway Park when resuming after a spell. Among the better chances. MONEY MAKES MONEY (6) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a spell on June 15, finishing fifth and beaten 4 lengths over 1308m at this track (Turf). Sure to make his presence felt.

Second run back. First-up after eight months 5th of 7 at this track on March 29 over 1609m, 8 len behind Won For Lou carrying 55.5kg at $4.90. Previously second-up second last in a small field at Del Mar in the G3 Best Pal Stakes on August 9 over 1207m, 14 len behind Desert Gate carrying 53.5kg at $7.90. Unlikely to threaten.
