ARCADIA, Calif. – Lady of Fifty and Snow Fall have given trainer Jerry Hollendorfer a formidable team in upcoming major stakes for fillies and mares at Santa Anita.
Last Sunday, Snow Fall won her first stakes in California in the $81,700 Paseana Handicap over 1 1/16 miles. She is expected to make her next start in the $200,000 Santa Maria Stakes over 1 1/16 miles for fillies and mares Feb. 16.
The Grade 2 Santa Maria would suit Lady of Fifty, depending on how she runs in the $150,000 La Canada Stakes for 4-year-old fillies on Sunday.
Lady of Fifty has won her last two starts, both in stakes – the Palm Springs Handicap over a mile here Nov. 1 and the Grade 2 Bayakoa Handicap at Betfair Hollywood Park on Dec. 8. She could go favored in the La Canada, which is run over 1 1/16 miles.
“I’m very happy with her right now,” Hollendorfer said. “Some horses take a little more time to come into their own.”
Snow Fall was previously trained by Michael Stidham and Graham Motion and joined Hollendorfer’s stable last fall. A 5-year-old mare, Snow Fall had an ideal trip under jockey Tyler Baze in the Paseana, racing in second behind pacesetter Distracting before taking the lead in early stretch. She pulled clear to win by 3 1/4 lengths for her second stakes win.
“Tyler made a good decision to move at the right time,” Hollendorfer said. “We were on the fence to run, but she was doing so well.”
Snow Fall has never won a graded stakes, making the Santa Maria even more important.
“It looks like she deserves a chance to try that,” Hollendorfer said.

I noticed her the previous race when she ran 3rd in a solid sprint ! Lots of options with this mare, good , Jerry seems to take good care of his stock. They seems to always look great and come back from the track in good shape.
He's a trainer that runs them healthy, leaves them in the barn if they are sore ! This is what you call a "good horseman"

Steve Andersen, who taught you to write??? It should read, Snow Fall was trained by Michael Stidham and Graham Motion before joining Hollendorfer's stable last fall... Wow

MONCLOVA galloped out strongly after closing belatedly in her second trip postward May 26, from which the runner-up exited to graduate with a 68 Beyer. The daughter of Queen's Plate winner Niigon is bred to run long, and can break through with the stretchout from six and a half furlongs to a mile and a sixteenth. BE MIND PHIL is returning on short rest off a closing second in her debut, going a mile around one turn on the grass. She has a blend of speed and stamina in her pedigree.
