Check out my Saturday (6-20-26) Los Alamitos Race Course Race 8 analysis below.
Scratches (race 8): #1 – Blame It On Abby, #6 Mashie Niblick
Updated Tickets After Scratches:
LRC 8 (Mcl-12.5k, Fillies & Mares, 5.5f dirt) – Post Time 7:42 PM ET
Primary – #4 PERFECT SMILE, #5 Twisted Humor
Secondary – #7 Free Nomination
Horse Comments:
#4 Perfect Smile (8-5) jumped the rail in her MOC-62.5k bow, and she hit the board in her next three starts. This is her first start since August 2025 and she should be a forward factor under her new rider Joel Rosario.
#5 Twisted Humor (4-1) is back in for a tag and figures to impact the pace. She completed the exacta in two of three starts at this distance.
#7 Free Nomination (15-1) completed the trifecta in 8 of 15 starts. She should show speed and might hang around for a share.
