Santa Anita Park Race 2 - Race 2 - Mdn Special Weight
PROUD RACER (1) was well fancied last time and finished a close second over 1207m at this track (Dirt) to remain a maiden. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Will play a major role. VAN GOGH STYLE (4) was unplaced on debut then last start finished third over 1207m at this track after being in the firing line on the turn. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. HUNGOVER (5) is a four-start maiden who finished eighth at his most recent outing over 1609m at Santa Anita Turf (Turf). Solid top-three chance on his best figures. OTTIS BETTS (3) resumes from a spell of 11 weeks. Looked close to a win before that break, finishing off with a minor placing over 1106m at this track (Dirt). Has ability so don't underestimate.
