Free: Santa Anita horses to watch for week of May 21, 2018
DRIZZY
Trainer: Michael Machowsky
Last race: May 17, 1st
Finish: Second by head
Beyer: 69
Second start back from a layoff, this English Channel gelding rallied from last to make it close in Cal-bred turf sprint won by pacesetter. Career-best effort coincided with switch to grass. Follow vs. tougher.
JELLYBEANKRISTINE
Trainer: Gary Sherlock
Last race: May 17, 3rd
Finish: 7th by 13
Beyer: 6
This 2-year-old showed speed in morning works, but broke slowly and took up in her debut, raced greenly, made a little move passing quarter pole, then went flat. Improvement likely second time out with a clean takeoff.
EL TOVAR
Trainer: David Jacobson
Last race: May 18, 5th
Finish: 4th by 2
Beyer: 89
A mile around two turns was slightly out of reach for this 9-year-old, who made the lead at the eighth pole before he was swallowed. A six-time sprint winner on the hill, he is likely to shorten up next start.
CALABASAS
Trainer: Dan Blacker
Last race: May 18, 6th
Finish: 3rd by 6 1/4
Beyer: 76
Good-looking debut by Tiznow colt. Broke slowly and trailed, unleashed mid-race move on turn, split rivals at top of stretch, finished well, galloped out in front. Big effort by maiden that wants two turns.
KETOS
Trainer: David Jacobson
Last race: May 19, race 8
Finish: Second by two and one-half lengths
Beyer: 85
Veteran pressed hot pace in $25,000 claiming sprint, opened up in the lane, got collared, and finished more than three lengths clear of third. Claimed for $25,000 by Jacobson; tough next time vs. similar.
