And in other riveting Santa Anita news ... I guess Maclean's Music is out there with Asmussen and getting fairly close to being ready for a workout.

Brad Free claims his setbacks were all minor things... and said the stable is hopeful he will be another Majestic Perfection.

Perhaps most riveting of all ... I found this old Summer Olympic pic saved on my computer.

Difficulty of 2.8:

That article also tried to tie in Curlin with that debuting Smart Strike, Welter Weight.

Apparently, it's slow but can really run.

That was an odd comparison. Didn't Majesticperfection make about 5 total starts, winning but one race of consequence, before fracturing a leg?

I'm not sure that's something to aspire to...
