ARCADIA, Calif. - So Happy, the undefeated winner of Saturday’s Grade 2 San Vicente Stakes at seven furlongs at Santa Anita, is scheduled to have his next start in a two-turn race later this winter. The where and when were uncertain as of Sunday morning. “I think we’ll play it by ear,” trainer Mark Glatt said. “He’ll tell us a little bit. I think we have to look at everything around the country.” From a local perspective, a likely option is the Grade 2 San Felipe Stakes at 1 1/16 miles on March 7, Glatt said. So Happy, who races for Norman Stables and Hans and Ana Maron’s Saints or Sinners Stable, won his debut in a 38-1 upset in a maiden race at 6 1/2 furlongs at Del Mar on Nov. 22. :: Access the most trusted data and information in horse racing!

Ridden by Mike Smith, So Happy was timed in 1:21.12 and earned a solid Beyer Speed Figure of 96. So Happy, purchased for $150,000 at the Ocala Breeders Sales Co.'s  2-year-olds in-training auction in Florida last March, is by Runhappy and s out of So Cunning, by Blame. Runhappy was the 2015 champion sprinter, the year he won the Breeders’ Cup Sprint at Keeneland. At stud, Runhappy’s leading progeny are primarily sprinters, although Smile Happy did win the Grade 2 Alysheba Stakes at 1 1/16 miles at Churchill Downs in 2023. Glatt said So Happy could prove to be effective in a two-turn race. “He’s got all the tools,” Glatt said. “He’s rateable. “Physically and mentally, I don’t think he has too many restrictions on how far he’ll run.” The San Vicente was Buetane’s first start since a second-place finish by 8 1/2 lengths to Ted Noffey in the Grade 1 Hopeful Stakes at seven furlongs at Saratoga on Sept. 1. Buetane closed from last of five in the San Vicente Stakes. Trainer Bob Baffert said Buetane will benefit from Saturday’s race. “He needed it badly,” Baffert said on Sunday. “The horse that won is a nice horse. Turning for home, I thought, we won’t catch him. It was a good race for Buetane.” Earlier on Saturday’s program, the Baffert-trained Explora was the easy winner of the $98,000 Santa Ynez Stakes for 3-year-old fillies at seven furlongs, finishing 5 1/4 lengths clear of La Wally, trained by Glatt. Explora closed from last of four in a small field to win without difficulty under jockey Juan Hernandez. “She was patient,” Baffert said. “She sat behind and let the speed go.” Explora, who races for Mike Pegram, Karl Watson, and Paul Weitman, has won 3 of 5 starts. She won the Grade 2 Oak Leaf Stakes at 1 1/16 miles at Santa Anita on Oct. 4, and was second by three-quarters of a length to Super Corredora as the 3-2 favorite in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies at 1 1/16 miles at Del Mar on Oct. 31. Explora, who paid $2.10 in the Santa Ynez, will race around two turns in her next start, Baffert said. “We want to go long with her,” Baffert said. “The Kentucky Oaks is the main goal.” The Grade 1 Kentucky Oaks at 1 1/8 miles at Churchill Downs will be run on May 1. Super Corredora, who led throughout the BC Juvenile Fillies at 8-1, is on course for her 2026 debut in the $100,000 Las Virgenes Stakes at a mile at Santa Anita on Feb. 8. On Sunday, Super Corredora worked five furlongs in 59.20 seconds, the fastest of 50 recorded works at the distance. Super Corredora worked in company with two other horses. “She got a little experience sitting behind a little bit,” trainer John Sadler said. The dates of the Las Virgenes Stakes and the Grade 3 Santa Ysabel Stakes, for 3-year-old fillies at 1 1/16 miles on March 8, have been delayed a week because of recent rain. The Santa Ynez Stakes was originally scheduled for Jan. 3, a program canceled because of rain. Track officials moved the Las Virgenes and Santa Ysabel Stakes back a week to maintain a four-week gap between the Santa Ynez, Las Virgenes and Santa Ysabel. Those races lead to the Grade 2 Santa Anita Oaks at 1 1/16 miles on April 4, the main race for 3-year-old fillies at the winter-spring meeting. :: Want to learn more about handicapping and wagering?
