PLAY OF THE DAY
SUN 2/9/2025
SANTA ANITA RACE 1
CLAIMING 30K, 1M TURF
1 BALDORO 2-1
2 FIREMAN DAN 15-1
7 RHYTHEM ON STAGE 20-1
3 SIMPLEXITY 5-1
PICK: 1 BALDORO
He hasn’t won at 1M on the turf but has been in the top 3 at that distance 5 out of 9 times. It’s expected he will get the ideal trip with the sprinters in here stretching out to a route. The pace will be fast and one sitting just in behind will have an advantage. Game win last start.
VALUE: 2 FIREMAN DAN
Has some races in his past that puts him in the win mix in this spot. Many of those came with blinkers on and they are added back today. Off slow in last at 35-1 with a much tougher group. Figures to get plenty of pace to close into. Drop is the right move. Price will be decent.
A) 1,2,7 B) 3,8 C) 5,6 D) 4
