Santa Anita Park Race 8 - Race 8 - Maiden Claiming
OFFLEETHIRSTY (5) 3yo first starter by Stay Thirsty for trainer Robert B Hess Jr. Respect the betting. ONE STEP BEYOND (2) Weakened to finish 5th last start around here. Looking for an improved run and has a good draw. Has shown early pace in races to date. Winnable race. BOSSING MO (8) On a short turnaround. Looked outclassed when 5th last run here. Happy to overlook that run but back to a shorter distance. Respect in this event. THROWTHEFIRSTPUNCH (1) Back from a spell. Was well beaten when 11th last time at the track but has minimal work to do from the alley. Market may be ultimate guide.

Resuming after a spell of 28 weeks. Started $9.00 and made up ground when 5th last start at Emerald Downs and having second career run. A difficult test here.

Odds of $36.00 and looked flat when 10th last time here. Might have to make up considerable ground. Pass at this stage.

Was $28.00 and didn't find the line when 6th last start at the track but was a debutant last start. Should be going forward early. Needs a mighty effort to win this.

First run back from a break of 40 weeks. Jumped at $7.00 and underperformed when 7th last run at the track but was on debut last time. Slim possibilty.

On a quick turnaround. Started $16.00 and didn't attack the line when 5th last run here. Happy to overlook that run but dropping back to a shorter trip. Definite winning chance.
