Santa Anita Park Race 6 - Race 6 - Maiden Special Weight
CHRISTA MCAULIFFE (5) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1308m at Santa Anita Turf, beaten only half a length after being in contention on the turn. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways. JOYFUL MISCHIEF (3) finished sixth two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1207m at this track, beaten 7 lengths after being in contention on the bend. Stepping up a level this time but on her best form she is one of the key runners. VERY SMART (6) has not raced since her debut on April 5 2025 over 1207m at Santa Anita Turf (Turf) when she finished 12th, beaten 13 lengths. Can improve sharply. ZADRA (4) showed good early speed last start on debut and fought on well to hold third, beaten 3.5 lengths, over 1106m at this track (Dirt). Among the chances.
