Santa Anita Park Race 8 - Triple Bend S. Stakes

SIMPLE SONG (4) Resumes after a spell. Stormed home to win last run at this track and solid career start. Has plenty of early speed. This suits. STRONGHOLD (5) Strong effort to the line to win last run at Oaklawn Park and lining up against easier rivals. Antonio Fresu is a key booking. Back to a shorter trip. Go close. THE LAST STRAW (1) Ran on hard when winning last time here and drawn the rails. Will be hitting the line strongly. Competing at a higher class. No surprise to see a forward showing and one of the main hopes in this race. BARTHOLDY (2) Tailed off to finish 9th last run at this track but taking on easier opposition. Should come to hand quickly. Running with confidence this preparation and has a good draw. Can run into the money.

Ran home strongly to win last time at this track and has drawn to do little work. Can go through the gears. Competing in a higher grade. Should give this a shake.

Didn't attack the line when 9th last run around here but stepping down to a lower level. Won't be far away during the run. Needs a lot of luck in this race.

Picked up nicely to win last run at Oaklawn Park and facing a weaker grade. Antonio Fresu rates highly aboard but will be down in distance. Will attract plenty of interest.
