Santa Anita Park Race 7 - Race 7 - Allowance Optional Claiming

CITY EXILE (6) missed the placings two runs back then did well last start but found one better over 1811m at this track, beaten only 1.5 lengths after being in the firing line on the bend. Worth noting J J Hernandez goes aboard. Finds a suitable race and can go on to take this out. PACKS A WAHLOP (8) did a great job to score by 0.3 lengths over today's course and distance last start in a far better run. This looks a sterner test than last time but on his best form he is one of the chief contenders. RE ARMED JON (1) was in contention on the corner and finished third last time over 1308m at this track (Turf), beaten 3 lengths. In the right race and is a key runner. MIDNIGHT STRIKE (5) showed good early dash and raced on the speed at the first run back from a break last start before fading to finish 3 lengths back in fourth over 1811m at this track (Turf). Cannot be underestimated.

Form hard to fault. Most recently raced on the pace when 3rd of 7 at this track on April 25 over 1308m, 3 len behind Lonesome Stew with 56kg at $11.40. The race before that sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 8 at this track on March 28 over 1207m, 3.5 len behind Irish Royalty carrying 55.5kg at $7. Genuine hope on best form.

Recent form sound. Comes here off a 44-day let-up. At the latest run ran on from midfield and won by a 0.3 len at this track April 2 over 1609m defeating Tariff carrying 55.5kg at $3. The race before that 4th of 10 at this track on February 8 over 1811m, 2.75 len behind Hiding In Honduras carrying 56kg at $14.50. Big chance to make it back-to-back successes.
