Superfecta Sunday on Downhill Turf

A perfect Superfecta Sunday as we go downhill on the Turf at the "Great Race Place".

Santa Anita Park Race 9 {Starter Handicap~6 1/2 Furlongs~downhill TURF~3 year-old Up}

A good crop of eight runners will gallop down the Santa Anita hillside Turf course. There is a great deal of speed in play. Speed numbers are extremely close giving every horse in this field a chance to walk into the winners circle. Our task is to cobble together a winning 10 CENT Superfecta box ticket.

#8 Infinite Magic (Prat / West) looks to be in great form and could pull off the victory with sufficient speed up front. He holds the third highest last out speed number at a route and has put in three good stamina building workouts. This lad should be tracking the pace from the outside post. he is our Bronze Horseshoe selection.

$2 SHOW.

#4 Rangi [GB] (Bejarano / Baltas) should be forwardly placed seeking to triumph with the second highest (tie) last out speed number, a two race progression, and two handy workouts. This guy loves the distance and the Santa Anita turf.

#5 Incline Village (Pereira / Koriner) shares the second highest last out speed number, is working a three race progression, and has put in two sturdy workouts. This guy should be part of the large forwardly placed contingent.

#3 Image of Joplin (Talamo / Chew) should be in the mix with the highest last out speed number, a two race progression, and three superb workouts. With a solid start he could grab the lead and not let go.

10 CENT Superfecta Box ($2.40)

Stakes Saturday at Belmont Park

We begin our horse racing weekend on Stakes Saturday. Today we take in a lively Turf contest at magnificent Belmont Park.

Belmont Park Race 8 {Pennine Ridge~G3~1 1/8 mile~innner TURF~3 year old~Graded Stakes}

A talented field of ten will strut onto the green in this spectacular Turf contest. It comes up a little light on speed making for a fine positioning battle among these foes. Speed numbers are relatively close which gives any one a chance at victory. Only one in the field has gone this distance. It should be a marvelous Turf race.

#2 Camelot Kitten (I. Ortiz / C. Brown) should be capable of winning a second in a row provided there is ample speed. He holds the second highest last out speed number, a three race progression, and two sturdy workouts. This son of Kitten's Joy should hit stride in his third start of the form cycle. He should close swiftly.

$1 WIN  /  $2 PLACE  /  $3 SHOW.

#5 Highland Sky (L. Saez / Tagg) will challenge with the fourth highest (tie) last out speed number and four high quality workouts. This lad will be stretching out to this distance. He does hold the highest speed number over the Turf. A son of Sky Mesa, he will join in the fun, closing hard.

$1 PLACE  /  $2 SHOW.

#7 Call Provision (J. Ortiz / C. Brown) should contend making his second career start after scoring a victory last out covering a slightly shorter route. He earned a respectable speed number in that race and should improve upon it. This lad could close earnestly with the rest of the quickening crowd. He is a son of Lemon Drop Kid.

$1 SHOW.

Another Wagering Interest

#6 Dressed in Hermes (Cancel / Armstrong) should be in the hunt with a couple of excellent last out speed numbers and two striking bullet workouts. He will travel over the Belmont Turf for the first time. This son of Hat Trick [JPN] could be forwardly placed ready to strike going into the stretch.
