Tough beats last weekend in the Jim Dandy and the San Diego. Where did Senor Buscador come from?
Not getting beat this weekend – Cody’s Wish in the Whitney. You’re not supposed to take a price this short on a horse trying something new (nine furlongs, in this case), but Cody’s Wish is relaxed and very fast. He might turn out to be even better at 1 1/8 miles than a mile. Zandon got a sniff, but didn’t make the cut, nor did any of the upset candidates in the Troy, where Caravel might finally take a step back after taking pace pressure.

1:46 SAR 2nd: BUSTINO SANTINO (#3, 5-1) has yet to catch a fast track after three starts; ran much better than it may appear on debut when hesitating at the start and then getting bumped between horses to wind up outrun, after which he put in a good finish for third; didn't run poorly at all when shotting for a big purse in his second start, and he did not get a great trip in that last one after losing position early behind a blowout winner; might be a lot better than he looks, but he needs to get out of the gate more efficiently.

This dirt-sprint maiden seemed uncomfortable moving to turf. Produced less speed than dirt starts, flattened out late. Worth following when returns to dirt. Class drop would be beneficial.
