Stakes Saturday Long on Turf

We celebrate our Stakes Saturday by going long on the Turf at the "Great Race Place."

Santa Anita Park Race 7 {American Oaks~G1~1 1/4 mile~TURF~3 year-old~Fillies~Graded Stakes}

A fantastic field of nine fillies will go long on the green in this annual affair. There is a little speed which could produce a casual pace with the speedsters hoping to game the rest of this bunch. Speed numbers for these gals are very, very close which makes it super competitive. This should be the most exciting race on today's card.

#1 Madam Dancealot [IRE] (Nakatani / Baltas) could pop with the highest last out speed number, a four race progression, and four superb workouts. She will be stretching out for this one, but appears to be well prepped. A daughter of Sir Prancealot [IRE], she should come make a nice run from off the pace.
$2 WIN  /  $3 SHOW.

#9 New Money Honey (Castellano / C. Brown) could go off as the favorite with the defection of her barn-mate, Rymska [FR]. She holds a couple of decent last out speed numbers, a two race progression, and four sound workouts. This gal has the tactical speed to stay the course and could take the field wire to wire. A daughter of Medaglia d'Oro, she is the only millionaire in the field.
$2 PLACE  /  $3 SHOW.

#2 Kathy's Song (Blanc / Baltas) looks to improve mightily as she stretches out in distance. She has put in a couple of decent last out speed numbers, a tremendous nine race progression, and two solid workouts. A daughter of Candy Ride [ARG], she should track the pace and strike in the stretch.
$2 SHOW.

#6 Beau Recall [IRE] (Talamo / Callaghan) should challenge with the second highest (tie) last out speed number and four hearty workouts. She loves the Santa Anita Turf course holding a 100% in the money over it from four tries. Another daughter of Sir Prancealot [IRE], she has competed once at this distance.
