Santa Anita Park Race 4

Maiden Optional Claiming

Prize Money: $53,812

LIAM SMITH (4) produced a fair effort on debut last time out when 9 lengths from the winner in sixth at this track (Dirt) over 1308m. Worth following up with that first run out of the way. SHARONS BEACH (6) is back after a break of five-and-a-half months. Went close to a maiden win before the layoff, finishing third at his latest appearance over 1408m at Colonial Downs (Dirt). Ready to find winning form. BAY CRUISER (3) is facing the starter for the first time. By Catalina Cruiser and hails from the John W Sadler stable. Expect a bold run. SHARONS ANGELS (1) was close to a maiden win before a 11 weeks break, finishing off with a placing over 1207m at Del Mar (Dirt). Can pick up where he left off. Rates highly on best form and a bright return wouldn't surprise.
