Horse Racing, Santa Anita Park, Feb. 12

Today at Santa Anita Park

Post Time 12:30 p.m.

Race 1 - 6 furlongs, Purse $25,000, Maiden claiming $40,000, Cal-breds, 3-year-olds

5 Rico Espada - Morning line favorite from the Peter Miller barn; key vote comes from Joel Rosario.

6 Alworth - Suspect he may have been named after Lance Alworth; watch the tote board for additional clues.

Long Shot - 4 Convict Lake

Race 2 - 7 furlongs, Purse $58,000, Allowance, Fillies, 3-year-olds

3 Princess Arabella - Won like a good thing, taking the next step up the ladder; see if the others tumble like bowling pins.

4 Starship Flare - Exits two stakes so this is class relief; she won twice on dirt albeit at Calder.

Long Shot - 1 Sage d'Oro

Race 3 - 5 furlongs, Purse $19,000, Maiden claiming $20,000, Fillies and mares, 4-year-olds and up

6 Warren's City Art - Been away 10-months, but faced much better back when; best career race was on dirt for a $40K price tag.

2 Alokee - Taking the biggest class drop in racing from MSW to maiden claiming; need not be much to compete.

Long Shot -4 Bensanna

Race 4 - 1 mile (turf), Purse $26,000, Claiming $25,000, Fillies and mares, 4-year-olds and up

9 Woodman's Lass - Was claimed two back by Paul Aguirre and run way over her head; this is a more reasonable spot.

8 Carousel - Doug O'Neill barn is heating up so expect even more wins; logical chalk in a dreadful looking field.

Long Shot - 3 Geniality

Race 5 - 6 furlongs, Purse $21,000, Claiming $12,500, Fillies and mares, 4-year-olds and up

8 All the Love - Best looking among a moribund field; big class drop and switch to Joel Rosario both help.

5 Queenie Marini - Doug O'Neill drop down is capable of waking up; figures to sit a trip and come grinding late.

Long Shot - 9 Classy Attraction

Race 6 - 6 1/2 furlongs (turf), Purse $56,000, Maiden special weights, Cal-breds, Fillies and mares, 4-year-olds and up

2 Angel's Moon - Most in here have little or no turf resume; this filly at least showed some ability last July at Hollywood.

1 Luckyvic - Her one turf race was a second in a sprint at Hollywood; taking the blinkers off, expect her to show speed.

Long Shot - 8 Vonn Nez

Race 7 - 6 furlongs, Purse $58,000, Optional claiming $25,000, Cal-breds, Fillies and mares, 4-year-olds and up

4 Lil Miss Macky - Has won two sharp races in a row for Mike Mitchell; she has a lot of conditions remaining.

5 Melissa Rose - Mike Mitchell has an uncoupled entry; this is the life saver in case the Lil Miss Macky trips up.

Long Shot - 2 Maya Angelina

Race 8 - 6 1/2 furlongs (turf), $70,000 Sweet Life, Fillies, 3-year-olds

5 Indigo River - Lot of last out winners make this a real dart throw race; can do worse than back Joel Rosario.

8 Dijarvo - Tepid chalk has the favored parking lot post down the hill; solid resume in good turf races overseas.

Long Shot - 2 Rowdy Gal

Race 9 - 1 1/16th miles, Purse $30,000, Starter allowance $40,000, 3-year-olds

6 Pulpit's Express - Looked like night versus day in race 2 versus his debut; his last race if repeated wins again.

3 Truetap - Didn't get to show much at Sunland last out; this is considerable class relief from a rich stakes for this.

Long Shot - 8 Go to the Pulpit

Best Bet - 3 Princess Arabella (race 2)
