Santa Anita Park Race 3 - Race 3 - Maiden Claiming
OLIVIA (8) resumes from a three-and-a-half months spell and looked close to a win before the break, starting favourite and finishing second at Santa Anita Turf (Turf). Re-unites with Kazushi Kimura. Ready for a bold run while fresh. MANHATTAN BEAUTY (3) is a five-start maiden who finished eighth, beaten 7 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 1106m at this track (Dirt). Can come on from that run and looks a serious contender. SALTY SISS (2) is close to breaking through after finishing third last start over 1006m at Turf Paradise (Dirt) when she was prominent throughout. Goes up a rung or two but she is worth serious consideration. DARLIN' DUCHESS (5) is a three-year-old filly who has filled a minor placing just once in seven runs. Never a threat when resuming last start over 1207m at this track (Dirt), finishing 13 lengths from the winner in fifth. Will drift back but wind up late. Not to be discounted.

Raced two times to date. At very long odds at debut, ran last in a small field at Santa Anita Turf on March 20 over 1207m, 12 len behind Rethink with 57kg at $75.10. Second-up ran last of 9 at Santa Anita Turf on April 5 over 1609m, 63 len behind Lubie's Music carrying 57kg at $75.80. Finds a few better today. Can't recommend.

Was at big odds at debut, 9th of 11 at Santa Anita Turf on May 3 over 1207m, 11 len behind Tulavia's World carrying 54.5kg at $35.60. Didn't quite do enough on debut to raise the hopes.
