Hey, Hey Hollywood Turf

The beautiful thing about the Thanksgiving weekend is that many people seek out entertainment venues to have a full, exceptional weekend.  Whether it be a college basketball game, movie, or better yet, a horse race, these types of activities make for a well rounded four day vacation.

Today we go to the Hollywood Turf.  Much better than a Hollywood movie.

Hollywood Park Race 7 {1 1/4 mile~Turf~Optional Claiming}
A delightful field of eight will make their way to the gate in this TURF battle.  Not much speed indicates that it could be a fairly bunched up group that will battle in the stretch.

#7 Hiatus (Smith / Hess) has a tiny edge with the second highest last out speed number, a four race progression, and three aggressive workouts.  This guy should close quickly in the stretch outleaning the others at the wire.
$2 SHOW.

#2 Jairzihno (Talamo / Mitchell) will challenge with a decent last out speed number and three stamina producing workouts.  He has raced well at this distance and likes the Hollywood Turf.
$2 SHOW.

Other Wagering Interests

#3 Antidote (Rosario / Sadler) appears ready to run well with the third highest last out speed number, a two race progression, and one bullet workout.  He has the tactical speed to go the distance.

#1 Erbia (Espinoza / Palma)  will be a contender with the highest last out speed number, a two race progression, and two vigorous workouts.  He should be among the closers gaining ground in the stretch.

#6 Yodelen Dan (M. Garcia / Mullins) is the grizzled veteran seeking yet another victory.  He holds the highest speed number at the distance and sports a 100% in the money record at the same.  Another who relishes the Hollywood Turf, he should put in a game performance.
