Its a pretty pathetic card at Santa Anita considering the big races. The SA Oaks has 4 horses then the Gold Cup has a whopping 6 horses for a G1 and lastly we have the Santa Anita derby with 7 horses one of which is still a maiden.

In Baffert, we trust...
A little rusty, and haven't done my homework.
There's some potential value in the "narrative".
Honor A.P. is an underlay for the exacta. (to take nothing away from a cool horse).
potential value.
Is worth a look.
aren't bad. Even the could upset the narrative and run 2nd.

I think Honor AP can show more at this distance and Smith knows how to win the big ones at SA. Shooter has ample early speed but the 27 second FQ at OP last out suggests he's gonna fade barring an extreme speed bias. The lugged a bit last out so perhaps 9F is a big stretch. The Friar posted a big LP figure in a 9F event last out but is still a maiden. The rail is hot right now, albeit limited sample size. Has the breeding to last the distance and might be a decent exotics filler. Perhaps the Anneau can run back to his Juvenile figure however the horse has faltered at this distance in successive starts. Still hard to ignore the overall class of races he's run in thus far. Azul is the other Baffert that looks overmatched. His LP on the GG AW surface was mediocre.
I'll probably box the / if the probables offer 2-1 or better. If not, then I'll focus on the tri/super and mix others in the place and show pool and hope one of the top two throws a dud.

Good handicapping.

Shades of the 1992 Santa Anita Derby when the grandsire A.P. Indy collared Bertrando with that ugly, head down, wide action and drove clear.
Shades only...

It looks like Honor A. P. took the expected step forward. There's probably some more to come.

The Mig was pretty high on this horse - talked him up good beforehand.
You could see when he got rolling he was going to be tough.

really wonder how much authentic was affected for being left in the gate, breaking sideways and racing wide early.
rushie ran respectable . right there the whole race and was bottled up around the turn coming home. didn't lose by much...no match for either the 6/7 but this race will give him another chance, and he was coming late.
