Pasadena | Horse Racing Free Tips

With additional rain forecast in the area, officials at Santa Anita have announced the cancellation of the live card originally programmed for Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, Monday, Jan. 16. As was announced when the track revealed that the Saturday, Jan. 14 program was also to be called off, racing will take place Friday, Jan. 20, originally a dark day due to the holiday racing.

Santa Anita will remain open as planned for live racing this Sunday, Jan. 15, highlighted by the redrawn GIII La Canada S., which was transferred from Saturday.

Daily Racing Form reported that no turf races will be run Sunday, nor were there races carded for the turf on Monday, resulting in a shortage of entries for the remaining dirt races.

According to tweets from the National Weather Service Los Angeles account, the total expected rainfall Friday night into Saturday in nearby Pasadena was predicted at 1.42″, with slightly less amounts farther to the south in the downtown area. An additional one-half to one inch of precipitation was forecast for the second weather system Sunday into Tuesday, with wind gusts of up to 45 mph.

With sunnier skies predicted for next week, Santa Anita plans to run Saturday and Sunday in addition to the make-up card on Friday.

Rock Your World captured his six-panel debut in Arcadia Jan. 1 and was favored at even-money to repeat in the one-mile Pasadena S. Saturday. The $650,000 KEESEP buy kept close tabs on the leader Commander Khai (Twirling Candy) from second through a half in :46.72. Shaken up approaching the bend, Rock Your World was confronted by Cathkin Peak (Ire) (Alhebayeb {Ire}) and a brief duel ensued, but the chalk still hadn't hit his best stride. Rock Your World turned on the afterburners in the final sixteenth, powering clear to win as he pleased.
The winner's dam, Charm the Maker, is also responsible for Grade III placed She's Our Charm (Candy Ride {Arg}) in addition an unraced juvenile colt by that sire named He's Our Maker. After foaling a Curlin filly in 2020, the sister to Grade II winner Liam The Charmer (Smart Strike) was bred back to Candy Ride. Click for the Equibase.com chart or VIDEO, sponsored by Fasig-Tipton.
