Free: Horses to watch at Los Alamitos

UNBLUNTED
Trainer: Michael McCarthy
Last race: Sept. 12, 2nd
Finish: 2nd by 1/2
Beyer: 53
This 2-year-old debuting colt lost interest on the turn, then finished strongly and galloped out in front. Although the speed figure was modest, this son of Sharp Humor can improve with racing.

UNFORGETTABLE U
Trainer: Carl O’Callaghan
Last race: Sept. 13, 4th
Finish: 1st by 3/4
Beyer: 86
This fast-working debuting filly ran to her works, winning by a deceptively easy margin despite a wide trip. A 3-year-old daughter of Tale of the Cat, she is a good one.

SPY GIRL
Trainer: Peter Miller
Last race: Sept. 13, 4th
Finish: 2nd by 3/4
Beyer: 84
First start since April, this 3-year-old maiden special weight runner ran a winning race. She pressed fast fractions, finished miles clear of third, and looks like a short price next out.

STORMY DREAMS
Trainer: Van Brinkerhoff
Last race: Sept. 14, 2nd
Finish: 4th by 8 1/4
Beyer: 41
Making her debut in a maiden-20K, this filly lost her rider in the post parade, broke last, raced wide, and split the field. She is better than the race indicates and might show up next at Stockton.

RON’S BOY
Trainer: Herbert Bacorn
Last race: Sept. 12, 8th
Finish: 1st by neck (placed second)
Beyer: 76
This maiden-20K gelding continued his improving pattern with the best race of his career, a highly rated “win.” He was disqualified for interference in the stretch. He looks like the one to beat next time vs. similar.
