This is a real handicap race for a change with the second lightweight having a good shot. Given the weight breaks and Bro Derek's love of Santa Anita, I give him a big shot at beating the Lava Man. I am throwing out his last race at Delmar.
BD is in with 115, the lightest impost of his career, 7 pounds less than he has carried in any of his 3 yo races, and is getting 11 pounds from LM. He is 4 for 4 at SA while running 4th in his last 4 races away from SA dating back to last year's BCJ. This is truly a horse for course. LM has never won carrying 126. The rest of the field looks like the usual suspects.
BD to win. Exb LM/BD. If the LM/BD comes in, it will probably negate the other wagers.
I will be rooting for the Lava Man.
