Hollywood for Friday night 8 July 2011
[private]
 So so card this evening but Saturday is full of quality and appears very playable. Good luck to all!
race 1Â Â Â average clarity
4 Van Brit  stepped up a notch in last and it sure seems like a good sign he steps up again.......5 for 9 at today's distance
1 El Nadia  seems best at Hol.....seems best at 1 mile........and hasn't missed a beat in the mornings....smartly steps up a notch
3 Holy Flapper  laid up filly is training sharp and owns 1 win and 1 second on the Hollywood grass course in 2 races on it.....nice history firing off of layoffs
Â
race 2Â Â Â slightly above average clarity
5 Unusual Jazz  broke slowly, checked on the run-up, and ran wide.....had the horse losing 8+ lengths and yet only got beat by 1+....should handle small step up with the same effort and at least an average journey from gate to wire
4 Joker Face   back to Bejarano and back to a sprint....significant (somewhat glaring) large drop out of MSW....very solid here if still in relative good healthÂ
7 Tiz Victorious  decent debut with little support at the windows suggests this 1ster wasn't that cranked up for debut and there is a good shot at more horse today
6 Wheels Of Fortune  has been vanned off in 2 of 5 lifetime starts but his recent works hint he is feeling better and his last was a somewhat hidden improvement
Â
race 3Â Â Â average clarity
1 Exuma   solid improvement in last....his 1st run for his new trainer M. Jones.....highly likely to show even more 2nd out after the layoff
2 Trueno  sure is training much more aggressively of late.....believe this gelding is feeling good and poised for a 2nd consecutive move forward
7 Warren's Warehouse  works suggests Sadler means business in 2nd out under his care....very dangerousÂ
4 Warren's Kong  lousy trip in last and still managed to finish up well.....Alicea will be out to make amends
Â
race 4Â Â Â slightly below average clarity
3 Jet Set Girl  5 year old 1st timer hints that she is quick and has a good foundation put into her to get the extended sprint distance of 7F
6 Tribal Charm  debut race back in Feb was rather decent...long layoff but sure trains as if she is ready fresh off of the bench as she was in her debut
9 Sunburn  broke slowly and rushed some displaying good early speed in her debut......P Val sticks around.....shot to wire
8 Russian Bayou  wasn't all that cranked up for her layoff run in last so that race was probably needed and we should see a forward move today
Â
race 5Â Â Â slightly below average clarity
5 Justincredible  sharp recent works for a horse competing in the low rent district....good speed in a race that lacks it and a solid speed jock aboard
4 Misinjennuous  recent 3F speed work and a capable 10 lb apprentice up......very dangerous in a race lacking much speed
10 Dish The Dirt  needs 1 to 3 months between starts for her best and gets it.....closer is hoping for more pace up front than anticipated
1 Gotham Spirit  see hints of a gimme/gimme/go and Moger is quite good 3rd out after a layoff
Â
race 6Â Â Â average clarity
5 Cadillac Coach  on the improve and sure is working as if another forward move is about to occur
1 Songfoya  impressive layoff near miss in last.....2 reassuring drills since....highly likely to fire another strong effort...maybe even more
9 Dos Bomberos  appears to need ample time between starts and Sadler gives it to him......good series of 5 and 6 furlong drills hints he won't drift in the stretch this time and should have plenty of endurance to get the added 1 furlong
2 Warren's Dr. Yang  won last easily despite a poor trip......also is training sharply as if a needed forward move can occur
Â
race 7Â Â Â average clarity
4 Dance With Gable  hard to argue with 4 out of 6 at the distance and all his figs on The Racing Digest's Top Turf Today are better than par in those 6 races
7 Aliza's Dream  solid lone race at 6 furlongs on the sod at Hollywood 2 back....just claimed and the new trainer makes a positive rider switch
5 Casual Obsession  small but capable barn got a nice win 1st after the claim at GG out of this gelding...solid effort/fig....1st on the turf today but bred fine to handle it....sharp recent bullet drill.....dangerous
Â
race 8Â Â Â average clarity
8 Filly Power  solid move forward 1st time blinkers in last and good works since.....only needs repeat of last to be tough here
3 Delilah Jones  both lifetime runs are decent and she owns some speed.....a good commodity to have in these abbreviated mc sprints
1 Rags For Ben  2 straight good races....can a 1 for 72 trainer in 2011 make it three in a row....hard not to root for himÂ
2 Tiz Final  showed some life in lone race run way back in December....training well enough to be ready
