Superfecta Sunday at the Great Race Place

Another nice Turf race for our Superfecta Sunday.

Santa Anita Park Race 6 {John Henry Turf Championship~G2~1 1/4 mile~TURF~3 year-old Up~Graded Stakes}

A high quality field of ten will take to the Santa Anita green. There is some speed and forwardly placed types to insure an honest pace. Speed numbers are close which gives the race a significantly competitive nature. Our task is to cobble together a winning 10 CENT Superfecta box ticket.

#6 Ashleyluvssugar (G. Stevens / Eurton) and he also loves the Santa Anita turf. He holds the highest (3-way tie) last out speed number at a longer Turf route and three hearty workouts. He should travel close to the pace ready to strike going into the stretch. With a streak of triple digit speed figs, he should go off as the favorite.

#8 Messi [GER] (Van Dyke / Motion) should challenge sharing the highest last out speed number, working a three race progression, and putting in three superb workouts. This lad is 80% in the money at this distance. He has the tactical speed to stay the course whatever pace scenario develops. He is our Bronze Horseshoe selection.
$2 SHOW.

#3 Flamboyant [FR] (Smith / Gallagher) should contend with the fourth highest (tie) last out speed number at a longer Turf route and four sensational workouts. This guy is 100% in the money at this distance. He should be flying late.

#10 Texas Ryano (Talamo / Gaines) could be in the mix with the second highest last out speed number, a four race progression, and four supreme peaking workouts. This guy holds a victory at the distance in his only try at it. He should be tracking and closing gallantly.

10 CENT Superfecta Box ($2.40)

#6 Ashleyluvssugar  +  #8 Messi [GER]  +  #3 Flamboyant [FR]  +  #10 Texas Ryano.
