ARCADIA, Calif. - After 11 races, the career of Monterey Jazz is now officially under way. At least that was trainer Craig Dollase's point of view following Monterey Jazz's front-running victory in Saturday's $300,000 Strub Stakes at Santa Anita.

Leading by as many as seven lengths on the backstretch, Monterey Jazz remained unbeaten around two turns with a comprehensive win in the Grade 2 Strub Stakes for 4-year-olds.

"We’ve got a brand new horse," Dollase said. "He's the real deal. He wanted to stretch out and I didn't know it."

ALBANY, Calif. – Sky Mystic ($7.40), last through the opening half-mile, made a four-wide rally into the lane and outfinished rail-running favorite Seattle Smooth by a neck to win the $100,000 California Oaks on Saturday at Golden Gate Fields.

Fourth as the favorite in the Corte Madera in her last start, Sky Mystic was a different runner in the Oaks. She won the 1 1/16-mile race by in 1:45.50.

ARCADIA, Calif. - Intangaroo, at 26-1 the longest shot in a field of five, gave trainer Gary Sherlock and jockey Alonso Quinonez their first Grade 1 wins with an upset victory in Saturday's $250,000 Santa Monica Handicap at Santa Anita.

Making her stakes debut, Intangaroo ($55.80) rallied from last in the final quarter-mile to win the seven-furlong race by a nose over Society Hostess, who led for much of the final furlong. Overly Tempting, the early pacesetter, finished third.

Hystericalady, the 1-5 favorite, could only finish fourth.

HALLANDALE BEACH, Fla. - With Eaton's Gift starting from an inside post over a speed-favoring track, it was not difficult to guess trainer Dale Romans's strategy for Saturday's $150,000 Swale Stakes at Gulfstream Park: Go to the front and don't look back.

Things don't always work out as planned, but in this case they did. Jockey Kent Desormeaux put Eaton's Gift on the lead from the outset of the 6 1/2-furlong Swale, and 1:15.63 later he crossed the finish line an easy 3 1/2-length winner over 56-1 shot Surrealdeal. Wincat, the 3-2 favorite, finished a tiring third.

Marina Ballerina ($19) opened up a 1 1/2-length lead in the opening six furlongs of the $65,000 Manatee Stakes, then had enough left to hold off the late charge of Meredith Bee to prevail by a length in the seven-furlong feature for older fillies and mares at Tampa Bay Downs.

Under Pedro Cotto Jr., Marina Ballerina went a half-mile in 45.19 seconds and was still comfortably in front after six furlongs in 1:10.47 but was fully extended as Meredith Bee closed fast along the outside. The winner completed the distance in 1:24.22.

Jet Away Jane ($9.60) erased a 2 1/2-length deficit in the final furlong and survived a claim of foul to defeat 4-5 favorite S W Aly'svalentine in the $75,000 Foxy J.G. Stakes for Pennsylvania-bred fillies and mares at Philadelphia Park.

About an hour before his colt Vanderkaay was scheduled to run in the Dancing Count Stakes at Laurel Park, trainer Ferris Allen watched on television as Surrealdeal finished second as a 56-1 longshot in the Grade 2 Swale Stakes at Gulfstream Park.

Considering that Surrealdeal nosed out Vanderkaay for third in the Pasco at Tampa Bay Downs two weeks earlier, Allen hoped the results of the Swale was a good omen.

Big Glen made a big sweeping move en route to a 1 1/4-length victory under James Lopez in the $50,000 WEBN Stakes at Turfway Park.

Shipping back to Kentucky from south Florida for trainer Frank Brothers, Big Glen ($14.80) drew away from pacesetting Mr. Harry, then had enough left to finish clear of a belated run by by Your Round. U. S. Cavalry, the 2-1 favorite, faded to fourth and Texas Fever finished fifth in a field of 10 3-year-olds.

HALLANDALE BEACH, Fla. - Coming off a seven-length victory in the Grade 2 Old Hat Stakes earlier in the session, Game Face figured to be an odds-on favorite for Sunday's Grade 2 Forward Gal Stakes. But the entire outlook of the race changed after trainer Todd Pletcher said he has decided to pass the seven-furlong event for 3-year-old fillies to await the one-mile Davona Dale Stakes on March 2.

Pletcher made his decision after Game Face worked a half-mile in 52 seconds at Palm Beach Downs on Saturday.

Amazing Results came from off the pace to win the $60,000 Black Gold Stakes, getting by General G and holding on to win by a length.

Trained by Richie Scherer and owned by Team Block, the 3-year-old Amazing Results ($8) entered the stretch in third, 2 1/2 lengths in back of odds-on favorite Excessive Heat, who just held on to finish third.

Julien Leparoux rode Amazing Results, who completed 5 1/2 furlongs on a turf course rated "good" in 1:06.12.
