A Hollywood Easter

We close out our horse racing weekend with a nice Turf allowance at Hollywood Park.

Hollywood Park Race 5 {1 mile~Turf~3 year old Up~fillies/mares~Allowance}
This will shape up to be a competitive Turf allowance featuring a field of ten.  A few will be forwardly placed, a few will be tracking the pace, and a few will set-up for a swift close.  Overall it will be a great wagering exercise.

#5 Laura Beasley (Blanc / Chew) looks very promising coming off a layoff with a 100% in the money record, over four races, at the distance.  She has put in a very good stamina inducing workout tab and appears to love the Hollywood Park course.  It appears she will close well.
$2 SHOW.

#8 Warren's Got Game (Valenzuela / Guiterrez) will challenge in the stretch with the highest last out speed number, a two race progression, and three hearty, peaking workouts.  She should close strongly.
$2 SHOW.

#4 Wake Me Now [IRE] (Flores / Lloyd) looks primed to race well with the second highest last out speed number, a three race progression, and two solid workouts.  She will track the pace and get first jump on the leaders.
$2 SHOW.

Other Wagering Interests
#9 Ninth Infantry (Sutherland / Bernstein) looks ready to come off an extended layoff with a superb workout tab of four streaking, peaking works.  She has a win at this distance as well as the fourth highest speed number at the distance.

#10 Jax El (Nakatani / Abrams) will be the speed of the race and could hold on for a piece of the purse.  She has the fourth highest last out speed number, a three race progression, and two strong workouts.  Definitely a contender.
