Santa Anita Park Race 7 - Race 7 - Maiden Special Weight
TRIBALISM (9) appeals off a strong debut second at Keeneland over 1609m, beaten 0.3L after racing handy. GAINES (4) brings recent local form, leading and grabbing 2nd at Santa Anita over 1308m, beaten 0.25L, and can measure up stretching out. POST GAME (1) keeps knocking on the door with multiple 1609m placings and was 4th here last time, beaten 2.1L. BORN TO ROCK (3) has prior Del Mar 1609m seconds and adds blinkers, a key chance if recapturing that mid-2025 form.
