#8 SALSITA (ML=8/1)
#4 DIVINE WAY (ML=4/1)
#7 RED BARRIS (ML=8/1)
#1 MARLA HOOCH (ML=7/2)
#6 FRANDONTJUDGE (ML=5/1)
SALSITA - Nice return on investment for this rider and conditioner duo. This filly is in fine physical condition. Finished first on Feb 22nd. DIVINE WAY - O'Neill drops her down to this class level. You don't need too much more from the pp lines to think this one will be tough to beat at this level. Bejarano was aboard this filly last time around the track and was impressed enough to take the horse right back. A pony coming back this soon after a solid race is a good sign. You have to really like that last race speed rating, 76, which is the highest latest race speed fig of this field. RED BARRIS - The ROI when Maldonado and Knapp team up is terrific. Knapp brings her right back. I propose you stay with this hot filly. MARLA HOOCH - Filly won shipping here on Feb 21st and looks good right back. Utilizing this jock/handler combination is a smart choice. This filly is in fine physical condition, having run a nice race on Feb 21st, finishing first. This filly has been working out well, and the recent bullet work says she's primed for a big performance today. FRANDONTJUDGE - O'Neill has an 'uncoupled' entry here. Best to be wary of the longer priced half. Horse's last race was at Santa Anita in a race with a class rating of 85. Dropping considerably in class figure today puts her in a solid position in this race.
Vulnerable Contenders: #2 WARRENS PUPPY LOVE (ML=9/2), #9 WARRENS LIL MARGIE (ML=6/1), #5 STROLLIN HOME (ML=8/1),
WARRENS PUPPY LOVE - This vulnerable equine ran a common rating last time around the track. She shouldn't run much better and will probably suffer defeat in today's event running that figure. WARRENS LIL MARGIE - Should have at least finished in the money in the last couple months in a short distance race to be worth a shot at low odds in a sprint. Notched a run-of-the-mill speed rating last time out in a non-classified race race on Feb 14th. Not likely to see an improved performance off of that number. STROLLIN HOME - Improbable that the speed fig she garnered on February 2nd will be enough in this clash.
