Santa Anita Park Race 5

Claiming

Stake: -

MR. LEASURE (4) Went to the front and never looked back to win by a head last run here and facing less formidable opponents. On an upward trajectory in recent races. Winning hope. LORD BULLINGDON (1) Narrowly denied a win last time at this track and up against a less challenging field. Ricardo Gonzalez and Steve M Sherman deserve serious attention when combined. Respect. ENTERDADRAGON (5) Finished with intent when 2nd beaten by 1 1/2L last start at the track and facing a weaker group of contenders. Exhibiting good form this campaign. Worth consideration. TARIFF (7) Didn't threaten when 8th last time at the track. Is capable of a resurgence and drops back to a suitable class. Change in trainer. In the mix.

Narrowly beaten last time at this venue and matched against a less competitive field. Ricardo Gonzalez and Steve M Sherman have a good working relationship. Drawn the rails. Has a good chance.

Odds of $18.00 and faded to finish 6th last start here. Likely to bounce back and stepping down to a lower level. Should muster plenty of early speed. Good value.

Controlled the pace when winning by a head last run around here and goes down in grade. Antonio Fresu and Tim Yakteen have a high strike rate together. Will be fighting out the finish.
