Horse racing newsletter: Swiss Skydiver back at Santa Anita
Hello, my name is John Cherwa and welcome back to our horse racing newsletter as we congratulate Flavien Prat on six winners Friday.
As we await the official reopening of racing before fans at Santa Anita, likely but not official around April 2, the track has another Saturday card with a little star power. Swiss Skydiver, winner of last year’s Preakness Stakes, is 8-5 favorite in the Grade 1 $300,000 Beholder Mile. It’s her first race since a disappointing seventh in the Breeders’ Cup Distaff.
The idea of a Preakness winner racing at Santa Anita (or Southern California) is nothing new. In fact, every Preakness winner has competed in Southern California since 2010 except one. (Think of the one recent Preakness winner you can’t remember. Answer below.)
Of course, the fact that many had Southern California trainers probably has something to do with it.
The interesting thing about Swiss Skydiver, other than the fact she’s a filly, is how well traveled she’s been. This isn’t even her first trip to Santa Anita, as she won the Santa Anita Oaks last year. She’s run at nine tracks in 12 races. In addition to Santa Anita, she’s run at Keeneland, Pimlico (duh!), Churchill Downs, Saratoga, Oaklawn Park, Gulfstream Park, Fair Grounds and Tampa Bay.
So, why did the connections of Swiss Skydiver pick Santa Anita to open the 2021 season?
“There were limited options where we are,†trainer Ken McPeek told Ed Golden of Santa Anita. “There really wasn’t an older filly and mare stake in Florida and I’ve got my other filly, Envoutante, at Oaklawn [for Saturday’s Azeri Stakes). I didn’t want to run against each other.
“Obviously the Beholder is a great race and I think Swiss Skydiver is capable of running a flat mile. She’s really sharp now, so that’s good, and the timing works out well.â€
Robby Albarado came in to ride the 4-year-old filly for the third straight time.
Now for the answer: Cloud Computing, winner in 2017.

Santa Anita review
Before we get to Friday’s feature, let’s congratulate jockey Flavien Prat, who won six of the eight races (seven mounts) on Friday.
It figures that among those races was the feature, an allowance/optional claimer for fillies and mares going a mile on the turf. The winner was 6-year-old Ippodamia’s Girl (picked by our own Ciaran Thornton), who comfortably settled off the pace, then made a strong move on the far turn and took the lead mid-stretch. She won by 1¼ lengths.
Ippodamia’s Girl paid $16.00, $5.40 and $3.80. On Mars was second, followed by Moonhall Milly, Laura’s Light, Miss Bigly, Catch The Eye and Trickle In.
“I’ve had her about four months,†trainer Richard Baltas told Mike Willman of Santa Anita. “She’s trained really well, and we were going to run her in the Megahertz, but I took her to the gate a day before the race and she tied up, so she couldn’t run. She’s a beautiful mare and well-mannered. We’ll stay home with her and look for a stake next time.â€
Santa Anita preview
There are two graded stakes on Saturday’s nine-race card, starting at 12:30 p.m. In addition, there are three allowance races and five turf races (the odd-numbered races.) Let’s look at the stakes.
Grade 3 $100,000 San Simeon Stakes. This six-furlong turf race has attracted eight starters, which is a good number for Santa Anita. The tepid favorite, at 3-1, is Jolie Olympia for trainer Richard Mandella and jockey Mike Smith. She has won five of eight lifetime with three seconds, although three of those wins and races were in Brazil. If you look at her last work, she got a bullet 47.1 for half a mile on Sunday, as the best of 80 horses. There are two horses at 7-2, Gregorian Chant (Phil D’Amato, Juan Hernandez) and Cistron (John Sadler, Umberto Rispoli). Gregorian Chant is coming off a win in the Clocker Corner, an ungraded stakes. Cistron won this race last year. Post is around 3:46 p.m.
Grade 1 $300,000 Beholder Mile: We pretty much covered Swiss Skydiver, the 8-5 favorite, up top. So, we’ll mention that Harvest Moon is the 5-2 second choice for Simon Callaghan and Prat. She had a fourth-place finish last out in the Breeders’ Cup Distaff and won four in a row before that, including the Grade 2 Zenyatta and Grade 3 Torrey Pine.
Here are the field sizes, in order: 11, 5, 6, 7, 5, 9, 8, 8, 10.
Ciaran Thornton’s SA pick of the day
FIRST RACE: No. 4 Nerves Of Steel (8-1)
Nerves Of Steel tries turf for the first time for trainer Peter Miller and ships in for the first start in California making him eligible for the bonus money. Prat hops on and is winning 27% for Miller. Blinkers come off, a move that yields a 28% win rate. No turf in the bloodlines but Miller risks for a tag Saturday, and with Prat on board this looks to be the money ride. 8-1 if we get it is a great price. Miller also sends out June Gloom, who is also making the first start on turf. This horse was ridden by Prat in the debut but now Juan Hernandez rides (they are 25%). June Gloom has turf in the blood with two turf winners from four. This horse was heavily bet in the debut. Horses over 5-1 have won three of the four times. This is a wide-open race to start the Saturday card.
Friday’s result: Ippodamia’s Girl went off at 7-1 and tracked in third before powering home for the win. ‘Girl paid $16 for the win. So much for it being an exercise run.

Golden Gate preview
Matt Dinerman is back for another week of Golden Gate Fields racing. The genial race caller is the host for our weekly previews and other musings. So, take it away, Matt.
“Live racing continues at Golden Gate on Saturday with a nine-race program with a 12:45 p.m.. post. An interesting maiden race kicks off our Late Pick 4 in the sixth race. My Pharoah Lady, a first-time starter for Blaine Wright, is by Triple Crown winner American Pharoah and out of the Smart Strike mare Striking Scholar. This makes her a half sibling to multiple graded stakes winner Stryker PHD. Leading rider Kyle Frey hops aboard. Other contenders include firster Liam’s Secret, Exquisite Legacy, who put up a respectable runner up finish in her career debut, the Frank Lucarelli trained pair of Fast To Fortune and Crazy About You, and Southern California shipper Annie Graham.
“The feature on Saturday is the seventh, a second level allowance at 1 1/16 miles. Our Silver Oak won three weeks ago at this condition and returns for trainer Jonathan Wong. We’re expecting him to go off favored. King Of Speed, who beat Our Silver Oak two races ago, is also entered. Stretch-out sprinter Ready for a Fight makes his first start routing for trainer Steve Miyadi and sports good recent form while American Farmer, who ran a bang-up second to Our Silver Oak last out, is back in for local conditioner Steve Sherman.
“A talented cast of filly and mare sprinters will be in Sunday’s featured 5½-furlong seventh race. Multiple stakes winner Dynasty Of Her Own comes off a big win last month and emerges as a favorite for Wong, who also saddles Tiz Fake News. Both Wong entrants run for owners Tommy Town Thoroughbreds. Hollywood Hills, who has had success on the Tapeta, is back in Sherman’s barn after a pair of off-the-board finishes against stakes company at Santa Anita. She is worthy of a second look. Square Peggy, a mare with terrific recent form for trainer Quinn Howey, draws the outside post and should receive a good trip. Although she is not the class of the race, her best effort likely puts her in the hunt. Gotham Desire is a consistent mare that always gives her best, and stakes winners Ima Happy Cat and Princess Vivien add more depth in what appears as an extremely high-quality race.
“To finish things off, here’s a look at our leaderboard. In the jockey standings, Frey leads all riders in most wins, with Evin Roman right behind. Catalino Martinez rounds out the top three. In the trainer standings, Wong sits the atop the list with Steve Specht and Isidro Tamayo right behind.â€

Chris Wade’s LA pick of the day
SECOND RACE: No. 5 Love And Hold (4-1)
He ran way better than looked when finishing third in a very much needed effort after a 205-night layoff. He finished well and on his own against better opposition after breaking a tad slow in his last start. After leaving the gate, he moved at a modest pace down the backstretch but began to go a lot better through the turn until leveling fairly well inside the 1/16th pole. He went on to garner the trifecta placing and had a decent gallop out. The figure earned, with everything factored in, puts this runner close up early Saturday, and I think he’ll be in the photo for a top spot for new connections that can pop with entrants of this ilk.

MISS FLAWLESS (FR) up close early outside the leader, floated out into the stretch, bid outside at the top of the lane and took over in upper stretch then held gamely over the late bid from the runner-up. CLEARLY GONE settled off the inside, came three wide into the stretch, summoned a late bid but could not get by. SHERILINDA sped to the front and crossed over to the inside, set the pace from inside, drifted out into the drive, lost command to MISS FLAWLESS in upper stretch and stayed on to save the show honors. SUGARY stalked between rivals or in the two path, came out on the far turn and entered the stretch five wide and missed the show. CHARETTE pulled early near the inside, settled along the rail then between rivals on the backstretch, exited the far turn two wide, kept on through the lane but needed more in the late stages. TIZNO'S DILEMMA pulled early near the inside, saved ground to the stretch, moved out in the lane and never rallied. HURLEY pulled near the inside first time through the stretch, was rated inside and saved ground to the lane but lacked further response when called upon. LITTLE BIRD (IRE) took the first turn three wide, remained three wide into the far turn then came four wide into the stretch and weakened. WIND TARTARE (FR) traveled near the back of the pack outside rivals, went four then five wide around the second bend and proved no menace.

DR. HOFFMAN got pinballed between rivals at the start, prompted the pace from outside, headed rival at the halfway point and dueled to the five-sixteenths, kicked clear from that rival and showed the way in the two path into the stretch, drew off in the lane while taking an awkward step late but remained well clear. TWIRLING DERBY chased three deep early then four deep on the backstretch, angled to the three path around the far turn, could not make an impact on the winner but was clearly second best. MONGOL ALTAI bumped with inside rival twice in the beginning, traveled five wide into the first turn then angled to the two path, steered out on the far turn and came five wide into the stretch and summoned a mild rally for the show. PAISANO chased the speed from inside, angled out leaving the far turn, drifted back inside through the stretch and churned on for a minor award. DERBY WAR angled in on the clubhouse turn, sat off the pace near the inside, remained along the fence then moved into the two path around the final bend and improved position. TIGER'S SONG stumbled leaving the gate, raced along the inside into the first turn then moved into the two path around the bend, went between foes on the backstretch, steered out in the stretch and weakened. LANDAA chased off the inside then three deep, dropped back around the second turn, came four wide into the lane and tired. LORD VADER broke in then brushed with outside rival, sent for the lead, took control and moved inside, dueled with rival from the half-mile point to the five-sixteenths, lost contact past that marker and tired. HAND-TIMED.

IPPODAMIA'S GIRL stalked the pace from inside, angled outside the leader around the far turn, collared foe with a furlong to go and kicked clear. ON MARS stalked from inside then moved out and tugged her way between rivals on the backstretch, steadied off heels past the three-eighths pole in the two path then angled to the rail, tipped out in the lane and rallied for the place. MOONHALL MILLY (IRE) angled in and tracked the leader from inside, steadied briefly at the three-eighths pole, kept inside then moved out a bit leaving that turn, finished willingly and got edged for the place. LAURA'S LIGHT sped clear and controlled the pace from the inside, remained clear to the stretch then got headed at the eighth pole and yielded. MISS BIGLY stalked the pace off the inside, lacked room behind weakening rival while between foes on the far turn, switched to the inside and lacked further response. CATCH THE EYE unhurried in the early going while outside a rival then three deep on the backstretch, chased outside rivals to the stretch and was never a factor. TRICKLE IN traveled three wide into the first turn then moved into the two path, forwardly placed outside the leader, started to weakened around the far turn and faded in the stretch.

MISSY P. prompted the pace from outside, remained confidently handled into the stretch, took over and cleared rival approaching the eighth pole, then powered away in the final furlong while ridden out to the wire. REEM set the pace with MISSY P. to the outside to the lane, was overtaken in upper stretch and could not go on with the winner inside the furlong grounds but was clearly second best. SHELL SHOCK chased in the two path to the stretch and outkicked MONGOLIAN PANTHER for the show honors. MONGOLIAN PANTHER broke in, bumped rival and bobbled at the start, chased off the rail then angled in entering the turn, went two to three wide around the bend and got edged for the show. RIVER GIRL tracked well off the inside up the backstretch, took the turn five then four wide and could not rally. WILD RIDE threw head and hopped at the start, came four wide into the drive and was never a factor. RATTRAPANTE bumped by outside rival leaving the gate, asked to be to be forwardly placed early, chased three wide into the stretch, eased in the drive and walked off.
