Santa Anita Park Race 3 - Race 3 - Allowance Optional Claiming
ROMANTIC RIDE (6) Reeled them in to win last start at the track and good career start. Maintaining a perfect record the last 2 attempts and racing over more ground. Should go well. VENTRY STRAND (1) Displayed good finishing speed when 2nd beaten by 1/2L last run at this venue and has been racing in stronger company. Going well this preparation. Will be motoring home late. A win wouldn't surprise. SCATALOTADINGDONG (3) Was making up some late ground when 5th last run here and honest performer putting a tidy record together. Facing a stronger group of contenders. Looks a great place bet. VICKY LYN (4) Romped home to win last run here and displaying improvement over the past few runs. Jockey Kazushi Kimura and trainer Brendan W Galvin command respect as a team. Not out of this.

Kept running on late when 2nd last run at this venue and competing in an easier class. Should get going late. Racing consistently this campaign and solid career start. Has definite claims.

Right in the mix last start around here and putting a tidy record together so far. Expecting to settle positively. Has a good draw. Competing at a higher grade. Unlikely to go close.

At $6.50 showed some merit late when 5th last run at the track and putting a tidy record together. Facing a stronger grade. Definite contender.

Picked up nicely to win last run at the track and getting better in recent performances. Kazushi Kimura is in good form for this stable. Winning chance at nice odds.

Started at $36.00 and got going late when 5th last start at this track and stepping down to a lower level. Juan J Hernandez is an advantage. Pass at this stage.
