Jeff's Grade 2 Eddie D Stakes Spot Play (Race 7)


Santa Anita (Saturday)


#2 Air Force Red (5/1) to win, place, and show


Jockey: Victor Espinoza


Trainer: Leonard Powell


Owner: Eclipse Thoroughbred Partners or Golightly



You want to bet on horses that are cutting back in distance when racing on the downhill turf course at The Great Race Place. Air Force Red has 3 wins in 3 starts at this distance, and has 3 wins from 5 starts on the Santa Anita turf course. Trainer Leonard Powell wins 25% Rte2Spr with an ROI of +58%. This jockey/trainer duo wins 44% together with an ROI of +93%. Third race off a layoff is often a horse's best effort. With a clean break AFR should go right to lead along with #3 Goliad. Good Luck, Jeff
