Santa Anita Park Race 2 - Race 2 - Mdn Claiming
JOHNNY B (4) Was well beaten when 6th last run at this track. Expecting improvement here and showing consistent performance in races. In good order since coming back from a spell. Finds a winnable race. BIG TIME COACH (2) Came in 4th last time here. Likely to bounce back and has a good draw. Facing an increased distance. Appears as a winning threat. INCA (5) Honest run on the speed before fading to finish 3rd last run at Los Alamitos Th and racing over a longer distance. Shows good early pace. No surprise to see a forward showing and one of the main hopes in this race. ROMANTICON (1) Fresh after a break. Below par performance when 9th last time at Del Mar but will be aiming for a soft run from the draw. Going up in distance. Worth some thought.

Started $4.00 and weakened to finish 6th last run at this venue. Expecting improvement here and solid career start. Going well this preparation and going over more ground. Should feature prominently.

Couldn't shake them off when 3rd last run at Los Alamitos Th and rising in trip. Will be positive in the run early. Stamps its reason for consideration.

Was $43.00 and fairly underwhelming when 6th last time at this track but stepping up in trip. Expected to settle towards the tail. Will struggle against these.
