Santa Anita Park Race 7 - Race 7 - Mdn Claiming
MUSTANG KNICKY (5) started at $4.70 last time and ran below expectations, finishing sixth and beaten 15 lengths at Los Alamitos (Dirt) over 1207m after being prominent at the corner. Taking on a better field but she is capable of running a bold race. QUEEN OF BANTRY (6) looks close to a win after finishing in the money at both runs, the latest when third at this track (Dirt) over 1207m. Should be poised just off the lead. Expecting a bold showing. IMNOTVANILLASKY (3) resumed eight weeks ago over 1106m at Del Mar and was only beaten 1.75 lengths into fourth. Strips fitter and can feature. ADIA (4) impressed last time out at the second run of the campaign and finished 8 lengths from the winner in second over 1207m at Los Alamitos. Placed to advantage so anticipating another big run.
