Horse racing newsletter: Congrats to Jessica Pyfer
Hello, my name is John Cherwa and welcome back to our horse racing newsletter as we get a handicapping lesson from Rob Henie, but not from where you think.
Before we get to some of the regular features, we thought we would recognize jockey Jessica Pyfer winning her first race. It was the ninth and final race, and she was aboard Indy Jones and returned a hefty $31.60 to win.
Normally, we wouldn’t pay a lot of attention to the first win by a jockey, but this is not Jessica’s first time in the L.A. Times. Back in 2016, I wrote a story about Phil D’Amato and how he and future wife Sherri Marr brought a young boy named Ryan into their life after being moved around the foster care system. The impetus to making that happen was Marr’s daughter, whom I referred to as Jessie.
As the story said: “A few years ago, Jessie had met with her father and learned about Ryan and told D’Amato and Marr that they needed to do something.”
They did.
The story is mostly about Phil but it also provides a backdrop to a great family, which now has a winning apprentice jockey in its fold. If you want to read it, just click here.
So, congrats to Jessica for what she did Friday, but even more credit for what she did several years before.
Long as we are throwing out kudos, I believe Christina Blacker of TVG told viewers that was her top horse before the race.

Weekly handicapping lesson
It’s time for our weekly handicapping lesson from Rob Henie of the WCHR (West Coast Handicapping Report) and the ECHR (East Coast Handicapping Report). Today’s analysis comes from the first race at Belmont Park and incorporates some handicapping angles into the mix. (Yes, we’re going out of state for this lesson.) Rob, take it away.
“The opener is an allowance at a mile. There’s one big difference between the one turn mile races we see at Belmont, compared to a typical mile race, which starts in front of the grandstand, and that is, the run-up into the first turn. One of the reasons typical mile races are won by runners from off the pace is that horses are asked a bit from the gate, wanting to gain a good spot into that first turn, expending energy, which often results in a scramble on the front end. Even the slightest regression late as a result of those quick early splits can be the difference between a winning effort and a losing one. With regard to these one turn mile races, the need to establish position early isn’t nearly as pressing, allowing for a more comfortable trip, which is precisely why early splits in these one turn races are usually slower than the typical mile races.
“With this in mind, top selection is BLITCHTON LADY (#3). Here’s our rationale with this one — if she can settle near the front end sprinting in :45 and change, it’s likely not gonna be an issue Saturday if she’s able to settle near the front end in the :48 range. Yes, she’s going further than she’s ever run, but we can also reason she’s going slower early than she’s ever gone as well, and that will allow her to get the extra two furlongs this afternoon, while we’ll also note, blinkers are added. As a general and reliable angle, when a trainer adds blinkers when going longer, it usually means the horse is settling just fine, with the blinkers more about focus than anything else. She also makes her fourth consecutive start since the 14-month layoff, telling us good health is clearly back in the picture, and when the health is in good order, the door is at least open to the potential for a good effort. We also like the slow work last week, telling us Abreu needed nothing from her while awaiting this next start. And one other thing: Though she came home in moderate :25.2 when going six furlongs last time out, she’s eligible to improve on that final quarter with the slower, more relaxing early flow in place. It’s something many handicappers fail to consider, with many simply locking in what a horse did yesterday, rather than expanding on how a horse can improve today.
“Expecting an effective try, MISS JIMMY (#7) has been in sharp form since returning off the seven-month layoff, coming off a win at Finger Lakes. So far this meet, horses exiting a Finger Lakes race and running on the main track here, have won two of nine, with four of nine in the money. We love the confident placement, given more ground while facing allowance runners, and it’s pretty tough to throw out a sharp horse being confidently placed, regardless of the track.
“Hot / Cold Race Trends: none
“Win Contenders (order of preference): 3-7
“X Out Runners (eliminating on the win end): 9
“Negative Notes:
“4 Firenze Freedom - She’s a plodding sort, and those types of runners are typically better served going 1 1/16 or even 1 1/8th, not over this flat mile distance, which is often better for horses with a quick turn of foot.
“9 Desbordes - Nearly every runner for Weaver of late has been firing, showing some late run, so the fact this one has struggled isn’t a great sign, especially considering she’s likely gonna push for the front end despite facing a better group early in the race than she’s ever lined up against.
“TOP PICK: BLITCHTON LADY (#3 6-1 Alvarado)
“SECOND CHOICE: MISS JIMMY (#7 9-2 Cardenas)”

Santa Anita review
The feature on Friday was an allowance/optional claimer for horses going 1 1/8 miles on the turf, well, mostly on the turf. The winner, North County Guy (who I wrote North Country Guy in yesterday’s newsletter), coming off a comfortable trip in second, made his move with a quarter-mile to go to win by 3 ¾ lengths.
North County Guy paid $7.80, $4.60 and $3.80. Untamed Domain was second, and Zestful finished third.
“He was very comfortable today,” Gutierrez told Santa Anita’s Mike Willman. “He was moving well and even before I asked him, I could tell he wanted it. He ran big, no doubt.”
Richard Baltas was the winning trainer.
Santa Anita preview
The news about Saturday’s rather unspectacular nine-race card is that the first post is at 1 p.m. instead of 12:30 p.m. I wondered why the time change? So, I asked Mike Willman, the director of publicity and knower of most things Santa Anita. He explained that when Santa Anita doesn’t have a 10-race card on the weekend, it makes it difficult to align with the Golden Gate card and do the Golden Hour pick 4 and Golden Hour double between the tracks. So, there you have it. Not a big deal, but a question answered.
On Saturday’s card, four of the races are on the turf, and all of them are at 5 ½ furlongs. Seven of the races are for fillies or mares and three of them are restricted to Cal-breds.
The feature would be the eighth race, the $100,000 California Distaff Handicap. Right away, you know two of the conditions and the purse. When you know it’s on the turf, you also know it’s 5 ½ furlongs. The favorite, at 6-5, is Just Grazed Me for trainer Phil D’Amato and jockey Umberto Rispoli. She is six-for-13 lifetime with four seconds. She runs a lot of stakes races for owner Nick Alexander. Her last win was in the Grade 3 Ken Maddy at Santa Anita last year.
Fantasy Heat is the second favorite at 3-1 for Mark Glatt and Geovanni Franco. She is three-of-10 lifetime with three seconds. She has never won a stakes race. Post time is around 4:44 p.m.
Here are the field sizes, in order: 7, 5, 6, 8, 6, 8, 5, 6, 12.
Frank Mirahmadi’s SA pick of the day
EIGHTH RACE: No. 5 Fantasy Heat (3-1)
Fantasy Heat draws a nice post in the California Distaff Handicap, so jockey Geovanni Franco has some options aboard this filly who may very well be the controlling speed. Everything will need to go her way to fend off the classy comebacker Just Grazed Me, who won this race under Franco last year.
Friday’s result: In a change of tactics from his first two starts in the U.S., Comradery ($4.40) was allowed to trail for the first six furlongs, made a nice move around the far turn and needed every bit of the nine furlongs to get up by a nose.
Frank Mirahmadi is the track announcer at Santa Anita Park.
Ciaran Thornton’s SA pick of the day
FIRST RACE: No. 5 Doghouse (20-1)
Doghouse is 20-1 for trainer Doug O’Neill and trying turf in the second career race. There is grass in the bloodlines, they add blinkers and we see a series of sharp workouts since that August debut. 20-1 seems an overly generous morning line in a race of newbies. This race has been run eight times with four winners priced over 5-1, two of those over 10-1. Abel Cedillo rides this horse for O’Neill and not his debut horse and that speaks volumes. In a card devoid of value this is where I land.
Friday’s result: Leprino looked good on paper and that was it. Whoever claimed will be dropping the horse next out.

Chris Wade’s LA pick of the day
SEVENTH RACE: No. 3 Cut The Swell (7-2)
He has improved in each subsequent start at Los Alamitos since the arriving from Grants Pass in Oregon. He moved forward nicely with everything factored in from his most recent effort 49 nights ago, even after getting slightly fractious in the gate prior to breaking slowly and being crossed by a quicker rival. After the troubled start, Cut The Swell put forth a nice run at the midway point, getting into contention past the gap and then finishing steadily to land in the trifecta. The figure earned from said affair is very competitive in this event, and even a slight improvement puts the long strider in the mix for all the board placings at a medium mutual.

CARMELITA'S MAN broke in and bumped at the start, settled early off the inside, moved out into the five path exiting the far turn, rallied to the front past the eighth pole and held the runner-up at bay.

MAMBA COOL stalked a bit off the rail then closed in alongside the leader at the seven-sixteenths, headed rival at the three-eighths pole, dueled around the turn and took command in upper stretch but yielded in the late stages. LUVLUV bumped both sides at the start, went four wide into the first turn then angled in around that bend, tracked between runners then came three wide into the stretch and lacked a bid. ULTIMATE MYSTERY raced at the back of the field outside a rival, entered the stretch three wide, drifted to the inside and never rallied. RIVER NORTH sped clear and set the pace inside, challenged nearing the far turn and fought back from inside then gave way. CHIPPER stalked in the two path then moved out into the backstretch, chased four wide into the lane and weakened.

AFTER MIDNIGHT broke in and bumped rival at the start, showed good early speed and took command, showed the way inside and saved ground into the stretch, inched away in the lane and remained clear to the wire. WARRENS CANDY GIRL stalked the leader outside a rival, raced two wide then moved out into the three path on the second turn, finished willingly but could not threaten the winner in deep stretch.
