Santa Anita Park Race 5 - Race 5 - Allowance Optional Claiming
HE'S A KNOCKOUT (6) First up after a 36 week break. Found another gear when winning by a margin of 4 3/4L last time at Del Mar and having second career run. Looks promising in this race. JOKER WENT WILD (7) Right in contention last time at this venue and solid career start. Will be positive in the run early. Emisael Jaramillo and Doug F Oneill form a proven partnership. Can take this out. ROLLINWITHPOLAN (3) Dictated terms in front to win by a margin of 1/2L last time at this track and was a debutant last start. Winning hope. TAMARANDO BEACH (9) Resuming after a break. Was dominant when winning by just short of 8L last start at Del Mar. First start for a new trainer. Displays good closing speed. Will be around the mark at odds.

First up from a spell of 36 weeks. Was $23.00 and uncompetitive when 5th last start at Del Mar but competing in a lower grade. Good career start. Would be more keen on the chance of others.

Displayed a good turn of foot when winning last run at Los Alamitos and going up in distance. Has run into the money on multiple occasions this preparation. Will need to find a new peak.

Dictated the tempo when winning by a margin of 1/2L last time at the track and was a debutant last start. Has plenty of early speed. Good potential.

Back from a 36 week break. Made no mistakes when winning by a margin of 4 3/4L last time at Del Mar and fitter for debut run. Should go very close.

Kept coming when 2nd last time at this track but back to a shorter trip. Exhibiting good form since returning from a spell but challenged by a tougher grade. Prefer in an easier race.

First up from a break. Won by a big margin of just short of 8L last start at Del Mar. First race for a new trainer. Not at all out of this race.
