Comebacker from Emerald Downs ran well in local debut. Pressed pace, hung tough late, second-best in starter allowance sprint. California-bred gelding should be tough versus similar rivals.

RACE 4: LOYAL TO A FAULT (#1) tried stakes foes last time out and found those waters too deep. SMOOVE AS SILK (#2) comes off a string of decent turf miles. She adds blinkers and moves to sprinting. SMILING AMY (#4) was a good third in a race like this here Oct. 10. (3)
On a solid Saturday of American racing, I wanted to get involved in Tampa turf stakes, but favorites in the Endeavour (Market Segmentation) and the Tampa Bay (Chez Pierre) look too tough and won’t offer value. Ice Orchid in the Bayakoa at Oaklawn narrowly missed the cut here; I fear she’ll be considerably lower than her 4-1 morning line. Earls Rock is a stealth contender in the Thunder Road at Santa Anita.
But on to the actual plays.
