Santa Anita Park Race 5 - Race 5 - Maiden Claiming
PRIME ARTIST (4) Showed a good turn of foot when 3rd beaten by close to 3 1/2L last run at the track and showing improvement in recent outings. Has to be strongly considered. IT'S TIME (5) Looked outclassed when 5th last start around here. Is capable of a resurgence. Has early speed and positions nicely. Looks well suited in this race. WICKED SPUD (2) Debutant 3yo by Grazen for Daniel Dunham and will try to take advantage of the barrier. Follow the money. DREAMRIDER (6) Weakened to finish 7th last start at the track. Can show a better performance this time. Solid place bet prospects.

Resuming after a spell. Underperformed when 7th last run around here but has a nice advantage with a good draw. Prefer in something a lot easier.

Started at $28.00 and weakened under pressure when 9th last start at this venue but fitter for debut run. Kazushi Kimura and Jonathan Thomas must be respected together. This looks a tough assignment.

Amongst the placegetters when 3rd beaten by close to 3 1/2L last run at this venue and form has been improving over recent runs. Should get going late. Very capable of taking this out.

Jumped at $16.00 and gave away some ground when 5th last start here. Is capable of a resurgence. Displays good tactical speed. Will go close here.

At $18.00 didn't attack the line when 7th last start at this track. Can show a better performance this time. Worthy of strong consideration.
