Santa Anita: Best Bet 7/1

Santa Anita Race 7

5 - My Palmilla

Expect a peak performance from this 3-year-old filly today. My Palmilla should get a perfect stalking trip behind the speed at this off the pace distance of 6.5 furlongs. She has already defeated half the field last time out, with a nice second place finish at this level, and will be ready to go making her third start off a layoff. This filly has shown she likes the dirt with a debut victory at Del Mar and has the most consistent speed figures in the field. Top rider Flavien Prat taking the call for Bejarano only adds to the intrigue. My Palmilla is the best bet on Friday's card.
