ARCADIA, Calif. – The Santa Anita winter-spring meeting ended Sunday with a slight gain in all-sources handle, but a sizeable drop in ontrack business, according to the track’s president, George Haines.

The track released limited business and handle data.

In an interview, Haines said the all-sources handle rose 4 percent. Ontrack handle fell 10 percent on comparative days from the 2011-12 winter-spring season, while ontrack attendance was down 9 percent, he said.

LEXINGTON, Ky. – The good news: It has been a productive spring in his home state for Hall of Fame trainer and Kentucky native Shug McGaughey.

Even better news: The best may be yet to come.

McGaughey already has sent out horses such as Hungry Island, Reflecting, Data Link, Reload, Imagining, and Boisterous for big runs at the Keeneland spring meet, but that might all be mere foreshadowing for what is right around the corner with Point of Entry in the Woodford Reserve Turf Classic and a colt named Orb in a certain race on the same May 4 card at Churchill Downs.

ARCADIA, Calif. - It only takes a nose margin to win the San Juan Capistrano Handicap over about 1 3/4 miles on turf at Santa Anita these days.

Apprentice rider Yomar Ortiz, the leading jockey at Pimlico, was injured when he fell from his mount during the stretch run in Sunday’s fifth race.

Ortiz was on the ground when he was struck by Gator Gone Wild, a trailing horse. He was taken to nearby Sinai Hospital for X-rays near the hip and femur areas on his left leg, according to Pimlico medical director Dr. Harry Harris.

LEXINGTON, Ky. – Just like his younger half-brother, Horse of the Year Wise Dan, Successful Dan kicked off 2013 as a winner, taking the Grade 3, $150,000 Ben Ali Stakes by a length over Boisterous on Sunday at Keeneland.

Successful Dan’s win came nine days after Wise Dan won his 2013 bow in the Grade 1 Makers 46 Mile at Keeneland.

The race unfolded perfectly for Successful Dan, who was able to cruise to the lead from his inside post, and establish dawdling fractions of 50.18 seconds and 1:16.05 in the 1 1/8-mile Ben Ali on Keeneland’s Polytrack.

As expected, Kauai Katie dominated three rivals in Sunday’s $75,000 Road Princess Stakes at Aqueduct, setting herself up for a return to top-flight competition in next month’s Grade 1 Acorn at Belmont Park.

ARCADIA, Calif. – Lady of Shamrock may have a stablemate working in her favor when she starts in the $250,000 Gamely Stakes at Betfair Hollywood Park on May 25.

ETOBICOKE, Ontario — Dan the Tin Man rode a speed bias to victory in his first start as a gelding Sunday at Woodbine in the $154,200 Woodstock Stakes.

Dan the Tin Man, ridden by Patrick Husbands, opened up a daylight lead around the quarter pole, and then held off the charging favorite Five Iron to score by a half-length, in 1:10.21.

Power Phil checked in third in a field reduced to five with the scratches of Lennon and Kitten Candy.

ARCADIA, Calif. - Procurement ran the best race of his career in Sunday’s $72,260 La Puente Stakes at Santa Anita, zooming through 1 1/8 miles on turf in 1:46.33.

“That’s fast,” said trainer Tom Proctor, who watched the race from Kentucky. “He might be a little better than I gave him credit for.”

Ridden by Garrett Gomez, Procurement ($3.60) had an ideal trip, stalking Counting Days and Little Jerry, who disputed the early pace. Procurement was third on the backstretch, circled the leaders on the turn, and won by 3 1/2 lengths.
