Santa Anita Park Race 1 - Race 1 - Starter Optional Claiming
DECAPO (6) Lost momentum late when 5th last start at the track and facing less formidable opponents. Will be pushing for a forward position early. One of the better chances. GORDON'S LEGACY (5) Gave them a lesson when winning by 3 1/4L last time here and was a debutant last start. Respect against this field. GOLD COUNCIL (1) Came in 5th last run here. Can show a better performance this time and has the ideal alley. Expected to be flashing home. Dropping in distance. Not out of this. LEGITIMATE (3) First run back from a break. Looked outclassed when 8th last run at the track. Capable of bouncing back and matched against less formidable competition. Keep in mind. Something for the Multiples: I'M OTTER HERE (4) BEE EYE GEE (2)

Started at $18.00 and folded up in the straight when 5th last start around here but gets a favourable alley. Always seems to find the line well. Cannot have in this race.

Resuming after a spell. Odds of $18.00 and couldn't maintain the pace when 8th last run at the track. Capable of bouncing back and goes down in class. Watch early betting.

Gave them a lesson when winning by a margin of 3 1/4L last time here and having second career run. Will go close.
