Free: Santa Anita Horses to Watch for week of Feb. 29

ALGORHYTHMIC, by Vronsky
Trainer: James Kasparoff
Last race: Feb. 25, 6th
Finish: 6th by 10 1/4
Beyer: 43
This Cal-bred maiden’s second start was a debacle. Off slowly from the rail, rushed, steadied and shuffled, empty in the lane. She can improve with a better post and switch to a top rider.

HOWDY, by Sundarban
Trainer: Peter Eurton
Last race: Feb. 26, 6th
Finish: 1st by 2 3/4
Beyer: 92
This 4-year-old Cal-bred continues to improve. He ran away from statebreds, earned the best number of his career, and fits in a first-level allowance route against open company.

BIG RED ROCKET, by Summer Bird
Trainer: Bob Baffert
Last race: Feb. 27, 3rd
Finish: 3rd by 2 1/4
Beyer: 83
This 5 1/2-furlong race was too short for this debut colt by Summer Bird. He chased the pace, went evenly in the highly rated race, and can improve with more ground.

HADFUNLASTNIGHT, by Margie’s Wildcat
Trainer: George Papaprodromou
Last race: Feb. 27, 7th
Finish: 3rd by 1 1/4
Beyer: 74
Despite a blazing pace and three-level class hike to $25,000 claiming, this veteran stuck in there until deep stretch at 6 1/2 furlongs. With a shorter trip/slight drop, he can be gone.

SOCIAL COLUMN, by Tiz Wonderful
Trainer: Gary Mandella
Last race: Feb.28, 7th
Finish: 6th by 19 3/4
Beyer: N/A
This debut filly broke slowly from the rail going seven furlongs, rushed inside to duel, and tired. She worked well going in and can be followed from an outside draw.
