Santa Anita Park Race 4 - Race 4 - Maiden Special Weight
DECISIVE WIN (5) raced once in the maiden preparation when fourth at this track (Dirt) over 1308m back on March 7. Likely improver who is worth another chance. ESSOS (1) resumes from a spell of four months. Could only manage to finish eighth at the latest run over 1811m at Santa Anita Turf (Turf). Set for a bold return. GHOSTWRITTEN (3) finished fifth two runs back then improved last start when he did his best work late but found one better over 1609m at this track, beaten 9 lengths. Finds a tougher race but another big run is on the cards. SABINO CANYON (2) resumes today after running last in a small field on debut at Santa Anita Turf (Turf) over 1609m. Rates a place chance.
