Newsletter: Racing! Today is a big day at Santa Anita
Hello, my name is John Cherwa and welcome back to our horse racing newsletter. Big day at Santa Anita, five Grade 1 races.
First of all, thanks to all of you who emailed your well wishes on this new venture. And thanks for all your suggestions on how to make it better. Like I said this is an evolving process and hopefully by mid-century we’ll have it perfect.
We’ll be tackling a variety of issues but we can’t get to all of them right out of the gate. Otherwise, what would I write about next week?
Today has a couple of debuts. First, we’ve decided to do a play-of-the-day and have called upon Jeff Nahill, who handicaps for our sister paper the San Diego Union-Tribune, so we know he’s used to being stuck on the road trying to get to or from Del Mar. (My comment, not his.)
And, today will be what I think is the most exciting part of this newsletter — full charts with trip comments.
But before we review Friday and preview Saturday, please allow this shameless plug for a friend.
Need something to read?
One of the sport’s all-time good guys, Bill Christine, is out with a new book “Bill Hartack — The Bittersweet Life of a Hall of Fame Jockey.” And he’ll be signing (and no doubt selling) copies at Santa Anita on Saturday starting at 10:30 a.m. outside Champions! Gifts & Apparel. It’s also available at Barnes & Noble. I haven’t read the book, but if Bill wrote it, it’s got to be good.
You may remember Bill was the horse racing writer for The Times for a couple of decades awhile back. He owned the sport. I remember when I had this silly idea I could be an investigative journalist and heard this great rumor:
So I call Bill. “Hey, do you have Penny Chenery’s number?” Yup, he had it. “Hey do you have the number of the guy that did the necropsy?” Yup, he had it. “Hey do you have the number of that polo pony vet that once treated him?” Yup, he had it. Then he offered up some numbers at Claiborne Farm. There wasn’t a number he didn’t have, or a person he didn’t know.
You never read the story I worked on because, well, it wasn’t true. But I remember it for the power of Bill Christine.

Big day at Santa Anita
If you are only going out to Santa Anita one day this meeting, this is the day. Five Grade 1s on an 11-race card and five turf races.
Racing secretary Rick Hammerle is taking Santa Anita boss Tim Ritvo’s call for more turf races seriously. Of the five races, you’ve got the first and fourth, both maiden special weights, the sixth is an optional allowance claiming, the ninth is a graded stakes and the 11th is an ungraded stakes.
And the smallest field size is the fifth, the six-horse Zenyatta Stakes.
The first post is an early 12:30 p.m. There is also a $50,809 pick six (no not an interception for a touchdown) carryover leading to an expected pool of at least a half-a-mil on Saturday.
Couple of thoughts, just so you don’t think I’m in Santa Anita’s pocket. Wouldn’t it be nice if Santa Anita could just let its biggest day of the meet stand on its own instead of luring people to the track with the promise of a Santa Anita Windshield Sunshade? (Thoroughbred club members only.) And what if you come to the track on the train and shuttle because that’s your primary form of transportation? Or ride a motorcycle? Just sayin’.
Also, one of our subscribers asked why this big day of racing couldn’t have been on Sunday this year because it conflicts with another big day, Yom Kippur, the holiest day of the Jewish year. Those who observe this holiday are forbidden from sundown Friday until sundown Saturday from doing certain things, which includes going to a race track. Just a thought.
Let’s look at the five big races on Saturday’s card.
Zenyatta Stakes (fifth race, 2:30 p.m., 3YO and up, F & M, 1 1/16 miles): The major question is which Paradise Woods will we see? When last we saw the 3-year-old filly at Santa Anita she smoked the field in the Santa Anita Oaks, winning by 11 lengths. (Watch here.) Then she went to Kentucky Oaks, over a generously labeled sloppy track, got caught in a speed duel and finished 11th. (Watch here.) Off until August, she returned for a lackluster sixth in the Torrey Pines at Del Mar. Now, she did throw a 6-furlong bullet on Saturday. Richard Mandella knows what he’s doing and Flavien Prat is a good rider, so that’s why she’s the 6/5 favorite.
Chandelier Stakes (seventh race, 2YO, F, 1 1/16 miles): Trying to figure which of these mostly lightly raced fillies has two good turns in them is the trick. The only horses that have gone a mile are longshots Terra’s Angel (12-1) and Holy Diver (30-1) and those races were on the turf. This one’s on the dirt. Morning-line oddsmaker Jon White seems to like Moonshine Memories and has made her 2-1. She’s unbeaten in two starts for hot trainer
FrontRunner Stakes (eighth race, 4:03 p.m., 2YO, 1 1/16 miles): This race has produced two of the past three Kentucky Derby winners with American Pharoah in 2014 (watch here) and Nyquist in 2015, (watch here) so this race has some juice. This one is a rematch of the
Rodeo Drive Stakes (ninth race, 4:34 p.m., 3YO and up, F & M, 1 ¼ miles on the turf): Goodyearforroses, trained by Del Mar meet co-champion Richard Baltas, is the 5-2 favorite. His last win came in the Santa Ana at Santa Anita in March. He’s won twice in three starts on the Santa Anita turf course. Mandella has two entries in Avenge, the second favorite at 3-1, and Majestic Heat, at 8-1. Prat got off Majestic Heat to ride Avenge so you know who he thinks is better. But sentimentally, you have give some love to Majestic Heat as the only Cal-bred in the race. She is the son of Unusual Heat, one of the best stallions in recent California history. He died earlier this year at 27.
Awesome Again Stakes (10th race, 5:05 p.m., 3YO and up, 1 1/8 miles): I get emails saying I write too much about Baffert. Well, hall of famer,
