Santa Anita Park Race 1 - Race 1 - Mdn Special Weight
ZIP ME UP (4) Good effort to run 2nd last start around here. Goes very close. ZUZU'S CLASSIC GAL (2) Initial appearance 5yo by Classic Empire for Mark Glatt and has a positive alley. Watch early betting. ZADRA (9) Faded in the late stages of the race when 3rd beaten by almost 12L last time at this venue. Has plenty of early speed. Respect against this field. SACRED SOUND (6) Didn't find the line when 5th last run at this track. Looking for an improved run. Expecting to settle positively. Juan J Hernandez is a crucial engagement. Won't be far away and represents an each way player.

First up from a 39 week spell. Jumped at $11.00 and couldn't maintain the pace when 9th last run at Emerald Downs but fitter for debut run. Prefer in something weaker.

Classic Empire 5yo trained by Mark Glatt having first race appearance and can find a nice position from the draw. Keep your eye on the market.

At $9.50 weakened under pressure when 5th last run at this venue. Looking for an improved run. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. Can measure up against these.

Was found wanting late when 3rd last time at the track. Has early speed and positions nicely. Placed at every start this preparation. Genuine claims.
