SANTA ANITA - Thursday, February 14, 2013

Better day than expected on Sunday with three winners on a very tough card.  Typical weekday card today. Good luck!

Race 1 

#2 - DJ DAVE - Drops in class and runs off a layoff for quality trainer Mike Mitchell.

Race 2

#3 - FOLK DANCER - Finished 3rd in her last start and drops in class today, looks like the lone early speed in the race.

Race 3

#10 - SWINGAWAY - 3/3 in the money on the hillside, closer whose running style fits the turf.

Race 4

#4 - LICO - Just missed in his last start, 3/5 in the money, should be coming at the end.

Race 5

#8 - AIN - Drops in class and should like the extra distance.

Race 6

#2 - ROSSI RESERVE - Wheeled back in seven days after finishing 2nd and being claimed, sent out by the strong Espinoza/Belvoir connection.

Race 7

#4 - BEST PRESENT EVER - Stakes try in her last start, seems to like the hillside, Bejarano rides.

Race 8

#3 - MEDUSALINA - Finished 2nd in her last start, should like the extra half furlong in distance.
