Santa Anita Park Race 2

Desert Stormer S. Stakes

Stake: -

MAGNIFICAT (4) Picked up late to win last run at this track and up against a less competitive field. Possesses good closing speed. Demonstrating upward trajectory in recent races. One of the major players. SYNTAX (5) Dictated terms in front when winning by a margin of 1/2L last time at the track and strong form at the distance. Won't be far away during the run. Good chance in this event. NOONI (2) First up from a break of 78 weeks and dictated terms in front to win by a margin of close to 10L first up last preparation at this track. Is in good order and can run well. REVERA (3) Faded at the finish when 4th last start at this venue but up against stronger competition. Joel Rosario and John W Sadler must be respected together. Could run into the placings.

Controlled the speed to win by a margin of 1/2L last time here and ideal distance as proven previously. Should be going forward early. Rising in grade. Down in distance. Will go close.
