Santa Anita Park Race 5 - Race 5 - Maiden Claiming
STAGE RUN (6) appeals back to 1m after a Santa Anita 1609m third two back in Maiden Claiming 83, and his prior 1106m run was sound. STAR OF DELHI (4) has the best mile credential with a 3rd here over 1609m in January and wasn’t far away in a March claiming race. CARL ERSKINE (3) brings recent Santa Anita form, including a 3rd over 1308m and a midfield effort last time. MY MAN JOE ROLDAN (8) has run 4th at his only two starts and stretches to 1m from a small-field sprint fourth.
