Santa Anita 4th: OC/N2X, 4+, 1m-T ($3 Turf P3/4th-7th-9th, $1 P6, $1 P3, DD)

Gulfstream 10th: MSW, 3yo-F, 1m-T (Hi-5)

Santa Anita 5th: OC/N1X, 4+, 6f (.50 P5, $1 P3, DD, Hi-5)

Next Best: #2 Elwood Blues 9-5
Exotics Use: #7 Good Vibes Only 5-1
Super Add: #1 Desmond Doss 7-2
Santa Anita 7th: OC/S-ALW, 4+, 1m-T ($1 P3, DD, Hi-5)
