Santa Anita Park Race 9 - California Flag H. Presented By City National Bank Stakes

LONESOME STEW (1) has been racing well this prep, scoring last start over 1609m at Del Mar Turf (Turf) to make it two wins from four runs this time in. Should park just off the speed. Will prove tough to beat. ON THE WHIM (2) was leading on the turn and fought on to finish second over 1710m at Del Mar Turf (Turf) at his latest appearance. Has a good record here at this journey. Should run well. BIG CITY LIGHTS (6) did well when resuming over 1408m in the G2 Pat O'Brien Stakes at Del Mar (Dirt) last start, finishing third and beaten one length. Has a strong record when second-up, including three wins, and has plenty of upside with the run under his belt. Leading chance. STEAK FRIES (5) scored last start at Del Mar Turf (Turf) to make it two wins and two placings from four starts this campaign. Should be poised just off the lead. Not to be discounted.

The start before that raced on the pace when 3rd of 7 at Del Mar Turf on July 24 over 1006m, 2 len behind Virat with 55.5kg at $4. No reason he cannot salute again.
