Looks like a nice card
I always smile when I see horses I like at nice prices, and today's card at Santa Anita looks like a good one.
Here's who I like:
2nd -- I'm going to play a four-horse exacta box here, hoping that we get a big exacta with these Cal-bred bottom claimers -- Spectacular Bay, Alie's Din Din, City Lights and Mammoth Power. I like City Lights the best and I'll put win money on any of the other three that go off at 20-1 or more.
.
3rd -- Sheztoohot looks tough in the spot for Jeff Mullins. If you want a long shot, take a look at Quippi with boxcar specialist Saul Arias aboard.
5th -- Look for Benson Road to be closing down the hill. I think he's an excellent across-the-board wager.
6th -- Unbridled Trouble, with Corey Nakatani up, could be long gone in this spot. The speedster shortens up to 5 1/2 furlongs and is an excellent Pick Six and Pick Four single in my opinion.
7th -- Island Launch will be tough here. Trainer Carla Gaines and jockey Victor Espinoza click at 25 percent when they team up.
8th -- The bet of the day. Go with the Bobby Frankel-trained Cotton King. Another excellent Pick Six and Pick Four single. Garrett Gomez rides.
9th -- Wrap up the afternoon with Away Down South in the nightcap. Martin Pedroza wins at a 43-percent clip when he rides for Mullins.
Good luck!!!
