Horse racing newsletter: Kentucky Derby field getting clearer
Hello, my name is John Cherwa and welcome back to our horse racing newsletter as we get a big 11-race card at Santa Anita but, perhaps, an even better 12-race one at Golden Gate.
We will obviously have lots on the Kentucky Derby in the coming days but just wanted to update you on a few late developments, especially involving Southern California entrants. Both Dream Shake, for Peter Eurton, and Hozier, for Bob Baffert, have opted not to run in the big race next Saturday.
Dream Shake will be headed to the Pat Day Mile. As for Hozier, he just wasn’t ready for this year’s Derby. Maybe next year. (Just kidding, seeing if you are awake. Yes, I know a 4-year-old can’t run in the Derby.)
Before we leave this brief opening item, and not to get ahead of our outstanding TV critic Mike Tierney, but I think the new TVG graphics are really sharp. It’s not a huge change, but it caught me right away as being good. Now, I just noticed them on Friday, which is not to say they haven’t been around for a while. Ask my wife how long it takes me to notice changes around the house. One time, I asked her about a new rug in the kitchen. “Is that new?” I asked. “It’s been here about six months,” she said. Yeah, not the sharpest pencil, but you folks figured that out quite a while ago.

Santa Anita review
The feature on Friday was a 6½-furlong turf race for Cal-breds 3 and up. The purse was $63,000. Fratelli, switching surfaces, took the lead at the dirt crossover and rolled to hand-ridden 2¼-length win with Flavien Prat aboard.
Fratelli paid $5.20, $3.20 and $2.80. Johnny Podres was second; Luvluv finished third.
“We had him last summer for one race, so we knew the horse,” Ruben Alvarado, an assistant to trainer Peter Miller told Mike Willman of Santa Anita. “We know what he likes and the only question was the grass, which he proved he could handle [Friday]. He’s a nice horse on either dirt or grass, no problem.”
Santa Anita preview
It’s somewhat unusual to see an 11-race card on a non-marquee race day. But that’s what we’ve got at Santa Anita on Saturday. First post is 1 p.m. There are two stakes races and five on the turf. There are three allowance-type races and one maiden special. So, let’s get to the stakes, including a rare first race stakes.
$100,000 Crystal Water Stakes: This one-mile turf race for Cal-breds is probably easy picking for horses that chose not to go to Golden Gate for the weekend. (See below.) North County Guy is the 3-5 morning-line choice for Richard Baltas and jockey Mario Gutierrez. He has won seven of 29 with seven second-place finishes. He has three wins in his last four races. Acclimate is the 8-5 second choice for Phil D’Amato and Prat. Six of his last seven races have been graded stakes, including a win in the Grade 2 Del Mar Handicap in 2019. Post is 1 p.m., as first post designates.
Grade 2 $200,000 Santa Margarita Stakes: The feature is for fillies and mares going 1 1/8 miles on the dirt. As Time Goes By is the heavy 3-5 favorite for Bob Baffert and Mike Smith. Her second place in the Beholder Mile behind Swiss Skydiver seems to have locked up the big favoritism. Harvest Moon is the second choice at 2-1 for Simon Callaghan and Prat. She was fourth in the Beholder Mile and Breeders’ Cup Distaff. She won the Grade 2 Zenyatta. Should be a good race. Post is around 4:46 p.m.
Here are the field sizes, in order: 6, 6, 5, 7, 6, 7, 7, 5, 8, 9, 10.
Ciaran Thornton’s SA pick of the day
ELEVENTH RACE: No. 6 Peace Pipe (15-1)
Peace Pipe races protected Saturday for trainer Richard Baltas, who again legs up Jessica Pyfer and her weight break. Third start of the layoff, Baltas wins at a 17% clip and in the money 47%. A series of sharp workouts and this 15-1 morning-line price looks attractive to end the Saturday card. In that last race going into the turn, Peace was in last, nine lengths back, and made a nice late move to run fourth. He powered past the finish line to cruise past the winner to the point that if you tuned in right as the race had ended, you thought Peace won. Today’s added distance looks ideal at a big price.
Friday’s result: Lady Robin broke to the front and led to deep stretch before getting mugged on the rail. After a long stewards’ inquiry, the second-place horse was dropped, no use for us. Watch next time for sure!

Golden Gate preview
Matt Dinerman is back for another week of Golden Gate Fields racing. The genial race caller is the host for our weekly previews and other musings. So, take it away, Matt.
“The biggest weekend in Bay Area horse racing is here. Gold Rush Weekend, a two-day racing extravaganza at Golden Gate Fields, features 12 races on Saturday-with an All Stakes Pick 6-and 11 more on Sunday. First post both days is 12:45 p.m.
“The Late Pick 4, a 50-cent minimum, will have a guaranteed pool of $200,000 on Saturday and Sunday. On Saturday it’s races 9-12, which includes the Grade 3 $250,000 San Francisco Mile (with 8 entries), the California Oaks (11), the Camilla Urso Stakes (10 with 4 also eligibles) and the Lost In the Fog Stakes (9). Sunday’s Late Pick 4, races 8-11, has a claiming sprint in the eighth (11), the Campanile Stakes (9) for California-bred or -sired 3-year-old fillies on turf, a second-level allowance in the 10th (10) and the the Silky Sullivan (12) for California-bred or -sired 3-year-old colts and geldings.
“Going back to Saturday, the Grade 3, $250,000 San Francisco Mile is the marquee race of the weekend. Grade 1 winners Ohio and Keeper Ofthe Stars are entered, along with Grade 2 placed Whisper Not, 2020 All American Stakes winner Restrainedvengence, and Border Town, who ran third behind Grade 1 winner Hit The Road in February. Kiwi’s Dream, runner-up in the San Francisco Mile last year, makes his second start of the year, and Brown Storm is one of six entrants on the Saturday program for Southern California trainer Michael McCarthy. Likely pacesetter Diamond Blitz rounds out the group.
“Saturday’s first stakes is the seventh, the $75,000 Golden Poppy for filly and mare turf routers. Last year’s Grade 1 Del Mar Oaks winner Red Lark searches for her first win since the aforementioned victory last summer. The eighth, the $100,000 California Derby, is led by 8-5 morning-line favorite Parnelli, after a sixth-place finish in the Santa Anita Derby. Irish import Styledome, an intriguing item in the $75,000 California Oaks, has won three consecutive races over an all-weather surface overseas and makes her United States debut for trainer Paddy Gallagher. Pizzazz ships north for Hall of Famer Richard Mandella and is a legit contender.
“In the penultimate race Saturday, the $75,000 Camilla Urso for filly and mare turf sprinters, local contender Dynasty Of Her Own has beaten the best female sprinters in Northern California and will surely get a class test from the Southern California invaders. Among them is Grade 2 placed Bohemian Bourbon and multiple allowance winner Storming Lady. The nightcap is the $75,000 Lost in the Fog Stakes for main-track sprinters. Local contender Baja Sur seeks his third career Golden Gate Fields stakes win. Bettor Trip Nick, a multiple stakes winner, beat Baja Sur in an April 2 Golden Gate allowance and is also slated to run.
“A lengthy list of Southern California trainers sends horses to compete in stakes races throughout the weekend. The list is Jeff Bonde, Val Brinkerhoff, Simon Callaghan, Neil Drysdale, Gallagher, Andrew Lerner, Mandella, McCarthy, Jeff Mullins, Doug O’Neill, Peter Miller, Leonard Powell and John Sadler. Jockeys from Santa Anita are Tyler Baze, Geovanni Franco, Ricky Gonzalez and Edwin Maldonado.”

Chris Wade’s LA pick of the day
SECOND RACE: No. 1 Secretly Paranoide (4-1)
He performed well in his Los Alamitos debut eight nights ago when finishing a solid second against well-meant speedster Charlotte Louise who broke on lead, caught a breather and extended at will. This runner chased throughout and finished admirably to garner the exacta placing while earning a quality figure that compares favorably against these rivals. I expect a step forward this evening and he comes with one of my favorite angles: the quick turnaround. Let’s push this gelding steadily for all the board placings.

Scratched–none. DQ–#1 Arctic Roll (GB)–finished 2nd, disqualified, placed 4th.
KITTYHAWK LASS rated outside the pacesetter, drew alongside around the far turn, headed rival with a quarter mile left, took over in upper stretch, drifted in a bit and gamely prevailed. ARCTIC ROLL (GB) stalked on the inside, tipped out into the stretch, drifted in and bumped rival at the eighth pole, continued to drift in and took the path of MISS FLAWLESS, finished well inside the winner but could not get by. CLEARLY GONE stumbled leaving the gate, was rank into and around the first turn, settled on the backstretch, came out on the final turn, entered the stretch five wide and summoned a mild late bid. MISS FLAWLESS (FR) was squeezed and checked between rivals early, waited for room around the last turn, saved ground into the stretch, went between foes and got bumped at the eighth pole then checked off the heels of ARCTIC ROLL soon after and finished willingly in the final sixteenth. LITTLE BIRD (IRE) chased between foes then outside a rival on the far turn, came three wide into the stretch, lacked the needed late kick and was not persevered with late. LADY ROBIN set the pace from inside, tested around the far turn, lost command in upper stretch, got bumped and steadied near the eighth pole and weakened. QUINNIE chased the speed three deep, dropped back and came two wide in to the stretch and had little left. FOLLOWING AN INQUIRY, THE STEWARDS DISQUALIFIED ARCTIC ROLL FROM SECOND TO FOURTH FOR DRITING IN AND TAKING THE PATH OF MISS FLAWLESS PAST THE EIGHTH POLE, COSTING HER A CHANCE AT A BETTER PLACING.

SCARY FAST SMILE set the pace inside of STING LIKE A BEE then cleared rival near the half-mile pole, showed the way along the fence into the turn, challenged by THRIVE on the turn, asked at the quarter pole and turned away the runner-up into the stretch, then drew off under left-handed urging and steady handling. THRIVE came in at the start, trailed early then moved up outside rivals, bid alongside the leader around the turn, lost contact into the stretch, chased the widening winner through the final furlong and was clearly second best. CATFISH CHARLIE well placed behind the leader early, could not keep up around the bend, drifted out into the drive and tired. STING LIKE A BEE away quickset from outside, pressed the leader then chased off the rail, entered the turn between rivals, started to weaken around the bend and faded.

ANOTHER EDDIE angled to the inside while stalking the pace, angled to the two path around the bend and loomed leaving the bend, came out some in upper stretch, challenged from outside and bested the runner-up late. DYLANS WILD CAT vied for the lead between foes then dueled with MUCHA WOMAN, cleared that rival approaching the five-sixteenths, met the challenge from and ANOTHER EDDIE in the final furlong, fought back from inside but yielded grudgingly in the end. MUCHA WOMAN vied for the lead with a pair of rivals then dueled with DYLANS WILD CAT, chased that foe a bit off the rail into the drive and kept on to regain the show. MICHALSKA chased off the rail to the stretch and got edged for the show. BIG STRETCH traveled along the inside, advanced while angling out on the turn, was in a bit tight between foes into the lane then again in upper stretch, angled out with a furlong to go and finished evenly. STARLIGHT STROLL sat off the pace off the rail, moved into the two path then to the rail around the bend and lacked further response. SUPER GAME tracked from outside, went four wide into the turn, five wide into the stretch and never threatened. WESTWARD BREEZE reserved early, settled outside a rival at the back, angled in and saved ground on the turn and proved no menace. STARSHIP DEFIANT vied three deep early then chased the top pair into the turn, steadied between foes at the quarter pole and tired.

CONSTITUTIONAFFAIR had speed outside ITSTHATTIME into the first turn, pulled to the front around the bend and cleared inside rival, showed the way along the inside into the stretch, led to deep stretch and lasted at the wire. LIAR LIAR (IRE) in range early from inside, coaxed around the far turn, tipped out in upper stretch, put in a late bid and missed. SEA OF LIBERTY saved ground through both turns, moved off the inside in the stretch, gained ground in the late stages but needed to find more. STORM THE BASTILLE (FR) bobbled at the start, tracked in the two path then entered the stretch three wide and finished evenly. GOV FROM ABOVE angled out entering the first turn, went three wide around that bend, exited the far turn four wide and weakened. UNILATERAL lagged behind early, saved ground into the drive and was never a factor. ITSTHATTIME sped to the front and moved to the inside, lost command around the clubhouse turn and chased the leader into the backstretch, traveled two wide into the far turn, steadied briefly between rivals at the quarter pole and faded.
