Santa Anita Park Race 7 - Race 7 - Mdn Special Weight
MISS ATHENS (2) 2yo debutant by Upstart for Bob Baffert and can find a nice position from the draw. Ricardo Gonzalez is an advantage. Betting is the best guide. WEHO (8) 2yo by Yaupon having first race start for John W Sadler. Jockey Joel Rosario is highly regarded. Watch the market. MO CHUISLE (4) 2yo first starter sired by Omaha Beach for trainer Michael W Mccarthy. Respect the betting. PROSPECT OF LOVE (9) Came in 2nd last time at Del Mar and was a debutant last start. Great to see jockey Juan J Hernandez taking the ride. Looks to be value.

Odds of $10.00 and ran 6th last start at Del Mar but having second race start. Most likely not today.

At $43.00 unsatisfactory performance when 9th last start at Del Mar but matched against lesser competition. Dropping in distance. Hard to see this being good enough.

John W Sadler trained 2yo by Yaupon having first start. Great to see Joel Rosario taking the ride. Market as guide.

Competitive effort when 2nd last time at Del Mar and fitter for debut run. More confidence with jockey Juan J Hernandez guiding the horse. Can measure up against these.
