Santa Anita Park Race 3 - Golden State Juvenile S. Stakes
EARLY ENCORE (1) was quickly into stride and went on to score by 6 lengths last time out over 1207m in stakes class at Del Mar (Dirt). Taking on a better line-up this time but he cannot be underestimated. GOLDEN CLUB (5) was too good for a maiden field last start over 1207m at Santa Anita Turf (Turf), scoring by 1.75 lengths. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Nicely placed to double the win tally. ANGEL'S EMBER (2) was an impressive maiden winner last time out, scoring by 4 lengths over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Looks well placed and he looks sure to be in the mix. FUMANO'S FIRE (8) has been thereabouts since getting off the mark four runs back, the latest effort a second over 1006m at Listed level at Santa Anita Turf (Turf). Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Sure to be thereabouts.
