Santa Anita Park Race 9 - Race 9 - Allowance Optional Claiming

VAN GOGH STYLE (2) went forward last start over 1308m at this track (Dirt) and held on well for third, beaten 1.3 lengths. In a suitable race and can figure in the finish. COURTSIDE ACTION (6) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 1.5 lengths when fourth over 1207m at Santa Anita Turf four weeks ago after being in the firing line on the bend. Is unbeaten in two starts here. Likely improver with strong prospects. KING'S RIDE (7) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1207m at Santa Anita Turf, beaten 3 lengths into fourth. Yet to miss the frame in two starts over this course and distance. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. MAKER AND SONS (3) was in the firing line on the corner and finished second last time over 1308m at this track (Dirt), beaten 0.8 lengths. Likely improver with bright prospects.
