5:39 pm ET Santa Anita (Race 4) – Kristi’s Tiger 7/5 (2-star play)
The six-year-old Kristi’s Tiger has shown good form in 3 starts since joining the Librado Barocio stable, including when delivering a 4.25-length victory in an allowance optional claiming contest over 6 furlongs at this track in March.
She followed that with a 4.75-length 3rd in a 6.5-furlong allowance race at Santa Anita last month and is proven over further too, having placed over a mile at Del Mar in August last year. She looks capable of delivering a victory following a recent 48.20 4-furlong breeze at the track.
6:42 pm ET Santa Anita (Race 6) – Truehood 8/5 (2-star play)
This Bob Baffert-trained son of Nyquist was a $700,000 purchase at the Keeneland September Yearling Sales in 2021. The colt failed to see the track at 2, but has delivered a string of impressive works in recent weeks, including when clocking 59.80 for 5 furlongs at this venue last week.
He missed his intended debut race due to a veterinary issue but with Juan Hernandez riding he looks capable of making the perfect start to his racing career.
7:44 pm ET Santa Anita (Race 8) – Defunded 4/5 (3-star play)
The winner of 3 of his last 5 starts, Defunded registered his first victory of the year when successful by 3 lengths in the Grade 2 Californian Stakes over 9 furlongs last month. The gelding had previously placed 3rd when overhauled late on in the Grade 1 Santa Anita Handicap over this course and distance in early March.
He sets the standard on form and looks up to registering his second victory at the highest level.
