Saturday
Gulfstream Park Race 10 – Tropical Turf Stakes (G3) 1 Mile Turf – $100,000
There was a lot of chalk on display in the Tropical Turf Stakes, with the top 3 favorites all getting in the money. It was a fabulous finish, as Ride a Comet and Casa Creed battled it out coming home, but it was Ride a Comet who prevailed, winning by half a length. Ride a Comet paid $6.20 for the win.
Santa Anita Race 8 – La Canada Stakes (G3) 1 1/16 Mile Dirt – $200,000
We did get a surprise result in this race, with longshot Sanenus driving home for a dominating 6-length win, paying $17 for a $2 bet. We had 14/1 shot Miss Stormy D coming in second and triggering a very nice $1 exacta that paid $94.80. Odds on favorite Fighting Mad finished well off the pace down in 5th.
Santa Anita Race 9 – Las Cienegas Stakes (G3) 6F Turf – $100,000
It was certainly a day of surprises at Santa Anita, as we saw another heavy favorite fail to win in this race. Jolie Olimpica started as an even money favorite, but he failed to get up in time, falling 2 ½ length short of the winner, Charmaine’s Mia, who paid $35.40 for the win, setting off a $58.00 exacta ($1).
Sunday
Chukyo, Japan Race 11 – Shinzan Kinen (G3) 1 Mile Turf – $780,000
The them of surprise horse racing results continued in the early hours of Sunday morning, with Pixie Knight winning the Shinzan Kinen at odds of 12/1. Kukuna started the race as a 7/5 favorite, but he could only manage a 4th place finish in what is sure to be a disappointment for the owner and trainer.
