Santa Anita Park Race 10 - Santa Anita H. Presented By Yaamava' Resort & Casino At San Manuel Stakes
JUST A TOUCH (3) is a handy galloper who was 0.3 lengths from the winner in second when resuming last start over 1710m at Fairgrounds. The one to beat. GETAWAY CAR (2) went forward and gave a great sight before finishing second last time out over 1811m in the G2 San Pasqual Stakes at this track (Dirt). Meeting a tougher field but on his best form he is right in contention. VODKA VODKA (4) finished a 7 length fourth on dirt at this track two starts ago. Much better last time though, following up with success on turf at Santa Anita Turf over 1811m seven weeks ago. K Desormeaux who has four wins when partnering stays on. Capable of running a bold race. WESTWOOD (7) was too good when resuming in an easier race over 1811m in the G2 San Pasqual Stakes at this track (Dirt) last start, scoring by 2.75 lengths. Open to plenty of improvement and is among the better chances.

Form hard to fault. Comes here off a 49-day let-up. Most recently won by 0.5 len at Santa Anita Turf LR January 17 over 1811m defeating Hey Jessie carrying 55.5kg at $1.90. Before that 4th in a small field at this track in the G2 Laffit Pincay Jr (San Antonio) Stakes on December 28 over 1710m, 7 len behind Nysos carrying 55kg at $11.80. Can get the job done again.
