Santa Anita Park Race 2 - Race 2 - Claiming

NEXT TRICK (3) was always forward and boxed on to finish third over 1207m at this track (Dirt) last time. Should be poised just off the lead. Will give a great sight. HE'S A GANGSTER (5) was a determined maiden winner last time out, scoring by 0.8 lengths over 1106m at this track (Dirt). Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Looks well placed and he looks sure to be in the mix. JUST DEAL (1) was below his best last start when beaten 6 lengths into fifth over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Nicely placed to turn things around. MACHO MAN (6) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when sixth over 1609m at this track (Dirt). Placed to advantage so expect a better run this time.

Second run from a spell settled back and ran on when 4th of 7 at this track on May 2 over 1207m, 3 len behind Novinophobia carrying 57kg at $21.60. Capable of a big finish so don't write him off.
