Best Bet on Santa Anita Opening Day

Sunday

Race 5: #3 Bob and Jackie 5/1


— Pace makes the race and that is what we have Sunday in the G2 San Gabriel with Bob and Jackie. The 5-year-old has some major back class with some of the highest previous speed figures in the field. This should show when he finds himself on the lead under new rider Jose Valdivia Jr. Trainer Richard Baltas has solid numbers when racing his horses second off the layoff and Bob and Jackie should prove tough on the lead at a fair price in a race that’s now on the dirt.
