Free: Santa Anita horses to watch for week of Oct. 24
JET SET MAN
Trainer: Brian Koriner
Last race: Oct. 21, 5th
Finish: 2nd by 1/2
Beyer: 77
A first-time starter in a maiden special weight turf sprint, this 3-year-old gelding set a fast pace, led to deep stretch, and got collared. Sharp debut, his dirt works suggest no problem if he switches surfaces.
SHEER FLATTERY
Trainer: Jerry Hollendorfer
Last race: Oct. 22, 5th
Finish: 2nd by 4 1/4
Beyer: 82
No match for future stakes colt Mastery, this 2-year-old second-time starter finished more than nine lengths clear of third while running a winning race. He should be tough next out.
AVALANCHE
Trainer: John Sadler
Last race: Oct. 22, 6th
Finish: 2nd by 1/2
Beyer: 61
This 2-year-old first-time starter ran well in a turf sprint. Not quick, briefly waited behind runners on the bend, cut the corner, and finished with run. Mizzen Mast gray has the look of a promising turf colt.
LI’L GRAZEN
Trainer: Steve Miyadi
Last race: Oct. 23, 8th
Finish: 4th by 10 1/4
Beyer: 52
This debuting 2-year-old filly hopped and was away slowly, then raced evenly in a California-bred sprint. Sibling to several winners, she might want a route. Follow with experience and distance.
