Superfecta Sunday at Santa Anita

We go into our last Superfecta Sunday of the year looking at a fine Turf race at the "Great Race Place".

Santa Anita Park Race 8 {Blue Norther Stakes~1 mile~TURF~2 year-old~Fillies~Stakes}

There is parity in this field of nine. Any one of these gals can pull off the victory. There is enough speed to produce a swift pace and the speed figs are very close. Four are coming out of the same graded event, while the others are moving up in class for this event. Our task is to sew together a winning 10 CENT Superfecta Box ticket.

#6 Laura's Light (Cedillo / Miller) might have the edge as she enters her third career race. This gal holds the highest last out speed number and three robust workouts. She has hit the board in both of her career races. A daughter of Constitution, she should be forwardly placed in a good position to capture this one.

#8 Croughavouke [IRE] (Rispoli / Mullins) should challenge with the second highest last out speed number, the highest speed number at the distance and two strong workouts. This gal loves the surface, distance and Santa Anita course. A daughter of Dandy Man [IRE], she will track and close with grit. She is out Bronze Horseshoe selection.
$2 SHOW.

#2 Guitty [FR] (Rosario / Powell) is another that will contend as she improves with every race. She holds a couple of good last out speed figs and two sound workouts. This gal has two wins from three starts at this distance. A daughter of Dunkerque [FR], she will be tracking and closing gracefully.

#5 Overjoyed (Smith / Drysdale) should be in the mix with the fourth highest last out speed number and three solid workouts. She has a win at the distance where she earned the third highest speed number at same. A daughter of Medaglia d'Oro, she should be tracking the pace ready to strike in the stretch.

10 CENT Superfecta Box ($2.40)

#6 Laura's Light  +  #8 Croughavouke [IRE]  +  #2 Guitty [FR}  +  #5 Overjoyed.
