Free: Santa Anita horses to watch for week of June 26

A NEW TREND
Trainer: Hector Palma
Last race: June 23, 4th
Finish: 6th by 3 1/2
Beyer: 71
This fast turf sprinter set the pace but faded again; 6 1/2 furlongs is too far. He will shorten up to five furlongs at Del Mar; threat to wire a similar California-bred N1X turf sprint.

NEWPORT BREEZE
Trainer: Peter Eurton
Last race: June 23, 6th
Finish: 5th by 9
Beyer: 43
This debuting 2-year-old filly was only prepping and ran okay. Not quick from the rail, got stuck behind a rival on the turn, angled out in the stretch and went evenly in possibly a better-than-it-looked debut. Tab for improvement.

RYE PATCH
Trainer: John Sadler
Last race: June 24, 8th
Finish: 6th by 3 1/4
Beyer: 84
Outside post and a fast pace compromised this $40,000 claiming gelding in a turf mile. He pressed and tired. Returns to Sadler after the claim was voided, likes Del Mar, fits in $32,000 to $40,000 claiming.

ONE I’M RUNNING TO
Trainer: Mark Glatt
Last race: June 25, 3rd
Finish: 1st by 5 1/2
Beyer: 80
Sharp 3-year-old gelding sped clear, won easily, was claimed for $22,500 by Glatt from Anthony Saaverdra. Lightly raced this year (two starts), can win right back in a similar claiming sprint.
