Horse Racing: Today at Santa Anita, Oct. 25

TODAY AT SANTA ANITA

By Richard Eng

Post Time 1 p.m.

Race 1 - 1 mile, Purse $47,000, Maiden special weights, Fillies and mares, 3-year-olds and up

4 Stanwyck - Half-sister to Kentucky Derby winner Giacomo; John Shirreffs has taken his time with her to allow mature development.

2 Revered - Stretches out around 2-turns for the first time; has shown late energy and with her pedigree, she should route.

Long Shot - 6 Miss Malibu

Race 2 - 5 1/2 furlongs, Purse $28,000, Starter allowance $40,000, 2-year-olds

3 Old Man Lake - Ran a clunker in last, his Santa Anita debut; his two prior races are both fast enough to beat these.

2 Zoom Bag - Won debut in sharp fashion, not sure what the heck he beat; still, he hasn't done anything wrong yet.

Long Shot - 5 Romar Success

Race 3 - 1 mile (turf, rail at 30 feet), Purse $47,000, Maiden special weights, 3-year-olds and up

5 Money Talker - Been very well bet in five straight losses; knocking at the door at a very short price.

6 Tiznow Or Then - First time Lasix in fourth career start, an usual resume in SoCal racing; should move him forward.

Long Shot - 4 Mr T Bird

Race 4 - 1 mile, Purse $29,000, Maiden claiming $50,000, 3-year-olds and up

3 Dylan Donnelly - Taking the biggest class drop in racing from MSW to maiden claiming; best spot so far to graduate.

9 Stars and Moons - Woke up with a career best race first time for a price tag; second time blinkers on could be the key.

Long Shot - 4 Half Strike

Race 5 - 5 1/2 furlongs, Purse $16,000, Claiming $8,000, Fillies and mares, 3-year-olds and up

6 Warren's Passion - Key question is can she repeat her maiden claiming win at Fairplex; flat out flew home over lesser lights.

8 Moon Stone Madness - Tepid chalk in a wide open affair; if you have the bankroll I'd go half the field, at least.

Long Shot - 5 Memo to Kathy

Race 6 - 1 mile, Purse $19,000, Maiden claiming $20,000, 3-year-olds and up

6 Surely Swift - Victor Espinoza going for win number 2 at this meet; he's far too good a rider to stay in this cold streak.

8 He Makes It Rain - Last was too poor to be true; draw a line thru it and leg up Garrett Gomez for the money shot.

Long Shot - 5 Awesome Year

Race 7 - 6 1/2 furlongs (turf, rail at 30 feet), Purse $53,000, Optional claiming $62,500, 3-year-olds and up

6 Sweet Swap - With the turf rail out 30 feet, speed and tactical speed on the grass will be a major asset tonight.

5 Smokdey Lonesome - Has shown affinity for the hillside course and for Santa Anita sod; best stride will come late.

Long Shot - 7 Red Defense

Race 8 - 5 1/2 furlongs, Purse $19,000, Maiden claiming $20,000, Fillies and mares, 3-year-olds and up

4 R Doubleday - Could finish what could be a pretty chalky card; speed to lead or follow close up.

7 My Moment Too - Ran greenly in debut, very slow early, but fast late; like that Corey Nakatani stays loyal to the cause.

Long Shot - 10 Ya Wanna Hug

Best Bet - 4 Stanwyck (race 1)

Santa Anita Sunday - Picks/Winners/Mutuels, 16/5/$30.00; Long Shots, 9/0/$0; Best Bet, 1/0/$0

Santa Anita Totals - 274/62/$490.80; Long Shots, 141/25/$254.40; Best Bets, 16/3/$9.20

SIMULCAST PLAY OF THE DAY - #4 Icon Ike (3/1) in race 4 at Keeneland. For scoring purposes, we'll make a hypothetical $2 win, place and show bet, $6 total. On Sunday, Bubbly Jane ran out at Keeneland. Stats - 157/108/$951.10; Follow him on Twitter: @richeng4propick
