Bob Ike's Free Pick of the Day for Sunday, Mar. 10
Santa Anita:
5th race--
#11 BANGED HIS EYE (4-1) Responding to a class drop down to MC$20,000, this Miller-trained gelding wired his opponents as the 3/2 favorite about three weeks ago. Drawn well outside and facing soft restricted claimers, he should be able to score right back as the second choice on the morning line.
Yesterday's Result: CRAGMONT ($8.40) won the 2nd race.
Live Longshot: PINK LOLLIPOPS (8th race)
ShowVivor: LET EM SHINE (2nd race)

Santa Anita:
2nd race--
#8 CRAGMONT (3-1) Although he's never been a win machine, Headley-trained gelding looks like the right horse in this spot today. He hopped and was eliminated at start last time, catches a field with two very suspect morning line choices, is drawn well outside and shows three solid works since his last. “Single” in the early exotics.
Yesterday's Result: CALLOUS EFFECT ($8.80) won the 8th race.
Live Longshot: CACAU (6th race)
ShowVivor: FLASHBACK (7th race)

Santa Anita:
8th race--
#7 CALLOUS EFFECT (6-1) Wide-open maiden claimer to close out the card but I will take a shot with this newcomer from Puype barn. Sophomore filly ran mid-pack when debuting at Presque Isle in a race that produced at least three next-out winners. She gets hot-riding Gomez and should fit well in this context.
Yesterday's Result: THERMAL NERMAL was scratched from 3rd race.
Live Longshot: TRIBAL CUSTOM (3rd race)
ShowVivor: ITALIAN RULES (6th race)

Santa Anita:
3rd race--
#7 THERMAL NERMAL (4-1) Filly from underrated Kasparoff barn got eligible to this race by running against open $40,000 claimers and did well to finish third in mile event. No reason she won't like the hill and gets major class relief in this starter allowance spot.
Sunday's Result: ERNIE OWL finished third in 2nd race.
Live Longshot: MERINGUE PIE (7th race)
ShowVivor: WARREN'S GOLDIE (2nd race)

Santa Anita:
2nd race--
#1 ERNIE OWL (4-1) Old pro ran well to finish third at this level three weeks ago and gets a major upgrade in connections to Baltas and Maldonado. He always gives his best and figures to fire another good shot in here.
Yesterday's Result: INSIDEONDOUTSIDE finished third in 7th race.
Live Longshot: SHERIFF RYAN (7th race)
ShowVivor: LIME RICKEY (4th race)
