Check out my Sunday (1-26-25) Santa Anita Park Race 9 analysis below.
SA 9 (Clm-20k/3L, 6.5f) – Post Time 7:07 PM ET
Primary – #3 MEGA MOON, #9 Magic Account
Secondary – #6 Teddy’s Triumph, #8 Carol’s Comic, #10 Rogue Son
Horse Comments:
#3 Mega Moon (2-1) was nabbed out of a runner-up finish vs. this kind Dec. 29. He moved to dirt, added blinkers, pressed, and finished in front of Carol’s Comic last time. George Papaprodromou is strong first after the claim and he reconnects with his winning rider Flavien Prat.
#9 Magic Account (3-1) fired exacta shots in 4 of 5 local starts. He exits a sharp $16k/2L win under AntonioFresu (5-for-11 w/Hector Palma).
#6 Teddy’s Triumph (5-1) earned a competitive number from post 11 in a local $16k/2L dirt sprint win Jan. 5 (blinkers off). He is 2-for-2 at SA.
#8 Carol’s Comic (15-1) rallied for the show as a 40-1 outsider in a similar local sprint Dec. 29. He is 1-for-15 with eight minor awards at SA and might move up in his second start after a layoff.
#10 Rogue Son (6-1) had his number taken down vs. this kind at LRC Dec. 6. Hernandez takes the call and the 2-time local winner will try to get involved late.
