Brad Free's Santa Anita Horses to Watch for the week of May 18
SKYE DIAMONDS
Trainer: Michael Machowsky
Last race: May 14, 3rd
Finish: 2nd by 1 1/4
Beyer: 58
A 2-year-old first-time starter, this filly made an extended run wide into the lane, hit the front, and weakened. This was a solid debut by a daughter of first-crop sire First Dude.
BIG MOVE
Trainer: Tim Yakteen
Last race: May 16, 7th
Finish: 2nd by a head
Beyer: 70
A 3-year-old maiden filly racing over a closers-friendly turf course, she set the pace and was collared late while improving over her debut. She might be gone third time out.
LUST FOR LIFE
Trainer: Hector Palma
Last race: May 17, 5th
Finish: 2nd by a half length
Beyer: 68
This consistent claiming filly was blocked on the turn, had to wait for room, angled out and finished fast. The drawback is it was her fourth straight runner-up finish.
LABOUR
Trainer: Mike Puype
Last race: May 17, 8th
Finish: 2nd by a half-length
Beyer: 86
Bred and raced in Argentina with modest success, this import ran well in his U.S. debut in an N1X. Forwardly placed, battled between foes, missed. He should be tough next out.
MR. PUCCI
Trainer: Jerry Hollendorfer
Last race: May 17, 9th
Finish: 3rd by 2 3/4
Beyer: 78
A 3-year-old colt making his debut, he set the pace under pressure, shook free into the lane and tired. This was a sharp effort by a Malibu Moon colt that can be gone next time.
