Santa Anita Park Race 6 - Race 6 - Maiden Claiming
SHADY GEM (7) could only manage sixth on debut then improved last start but found one better over 1106m at this track, beaten half a length after being in contention on the turn. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. CHARMZ AWAY (8) was prominent from the outset and fought on for third last start over 1207m at this track (Dirt), making it two minor placings in a row. Meeting a tougher field but on his best form he is right in contention. SUNK COST FALLACY (2) finished fourth last start over 1207m at this track (Dirt) after racing on the pace for much of the way. Well placed and expected to feature. TROJAN MAFIA (9) has not raced since his debut back on February 7 when he finished fourth over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Worth following up.
