Horse Racing, Hollywood Park, June 21

Today at Hollywood Park

Post Time 1 p.m.

Race 1 – 6 1/2 furlongs, Purse $20,000, Claiming $10,000, 3-year-olds

2 Tribal Dreams – Claimed off two wins and dropped in class by Gary Sherluck; Sherluck has an uncoupled entry so caveat emptor.

6 Call Me Jones – Steve Knapp has been winning races of late; his signature move is to win on the drop, just like this horse.

Long Shot – 1 Pop the Cork

Race 2 – 5 furlongs (turf, rail at 15 feet), Purse $50,000, Maiden special weights, 2-year-olds

6 Manewal – Peter Miller has an uncoupled entry so caveat emptor; by City Zip out of a Silver Deputy mare, that’s turf pedigree.

2 Rob’s Pal – You’ll have a big edge over me in seeing the tote board action on the many FTS; Jeff Mullins must always be respected.

Long Shot – 7 Speedinthruthecity

Race 3 – 4 1/2 furlongs, Purse $29,000, Maiden claiming $50,000, Fillies, 2-year-olds

9 Iotapa – FTS from Marty Jones gets the services of Rafael Bejarano; your advantage is the field is chock full of FTS.

8 Divas and Diamonds – Showed a good early burst in her debut; taking the biggest class drop in racing from MSW to maiden claiming.

Long Shot – 3 Gambulina

Race 4 – 6 furlongs, Purse $25,000, Claiming $25,000, 3-year-olds and up

4 Magic Beam – Aggressive class rise off a second place finish; has enough back class to think he has a better race left in him.

1 Runaway Bandido – Been away 4-months so he’s fresh as a daisy; saves all the ground, figures to be grinding it out late.

Long Shot – 6 Panettone

Race 5 – 1 1/16th miles (turf, rail at 15 feet), Purse $52,000, Optional claiming $25,000, Cal-breds, Fillies and mares, 3-year-olds and up

3 Elana Mar – Tough beat last time when she had to idle in mid-stretch before rallying late; David Flores will carve out a trip.

1 Highly Rated – I don’t usually like picking recent graduates facing winners for the first time; it is a solid class rise.

Long Shot – 2 Warren’s Goldie

Race 6 – 1 1/16th miles, Purse $19,000, Maiden claiming $20,000, Fillies and mares, 3-year-olds and up

4 I’m Always Hopeful – Sliding down the maiden claiming ladder to this career low run; need not be much to grind out a victory.

7 Malibu Love – Money burner was second at odds on twice in a row; she may win today, but I doubt if you’ll get even with her.

Long Shot – 8 Aredhel

Race 7 – 6 1/2 furlongs, Purse $55,000, Allowance, Fillies and mares, 3-year-olds and up

5 Glamorista – Lost last out to a very talented filly Reneesgotzip; she has the potential to win stakes, a lot of them.

2 Orientatious – Logical morning line favorite; the key is her fitness returning from a 11-month hiatus, this is just a prep.

Long Shot – 4 Sparkling Style

Race 8 – 4 1/2 furlongs, Purse $29,000, Maiden claiming $50,000, Fillies, 2-year-olds

8 Citizen Bernstein – Ran OK in debut, now facing a bunch of FTS; your edge will be seeing the tote board action.

3 Ruler of the Tribe – FTS from the live Peter Miller barn; like the fact Miller is stabled at Hollywood and trains there.

Long Shot – 1 Renee’s Titan

Best Bet – 2 Tribal Dreams (race 1)
