Sign Of Lanty Tries to End Losing Streak
Sign Of Lanty will try to end a rare losing streak when he makes his 57th start in the $31,650 James Smith Memorial Handicap tonight at Los Alamitos.
Long a top performer at 870 yards, the veteran gelding was beaten in consecutive races at Sunland Park in March after winning his first race of 2002 in a dead heat on Feb. 2 at Los Alamitos.
Owned by Jackie and Rod Macpherson Jr. and trained by John Cooper, Sign Of Lanty will be ridden by Eddie Garcia as he seeks his 25th win.
The picks: 1. Testy In Traffic. 2. Icey Gambler. 3. Deefirst. 4. Royalclassic Express. 5. Love Remains. 6. Zipolator. 7. Crimson Jess. 8. Famous Cartel. 9. Rock N Strawfly. 10. Drop Your Sox. 11. Chenilles Dasher.
Four! In the first, let’s use First Sight and Testy In Traffic, Juan Gordito and Icey Gambler in the second, single Deefirst in the third and all in the fourth.
Shot in the dark: Cami Jay is a first-time starter from a successful barn (Adan Farias) debuting against $10,000 maidens in the fifth.
Post time: 6:30 p.m.
