GUNS LOADED FIRES ON EIGHT DAYS REST TO WIN $75,000 JOE HERNANDEZ STAKES

BY 2 ¼ LENGTHS UNDER GONZALEZ; O’NEILL TRAINEE GETS 6 ½ FURLONGS DOWN HILLSIDE TURF IN 1:12.60

Guns Loaded

An allowance winner on dirt just eight days ago, the Doug O’Neill-conditioned Guns Loaded transitioned back to the turf in fine fashion on Sunday, as he took Santa Anita’s featured $75,000 Joe Hernandez Stakes by 2 ¼ lengths. Ridden by Santiago Gonzalez, Guns Loaded negotiated 6 ½ furlongs down the Camino Real Turf Course in 1:12.60.

“All the credit goes to Doug,” said part-owner and O’Neill assistant, Steve Rothblum. “If you’re a numbers player, on the Ragozin Sheets, if you run them back off a good race, within nine days, they run great. If you wait longer, they don’t. It’s either run them back quick or run them back after 30 days. “We lost this horse for 32 (thousand, dollars) at Del Mar (Nov. 5) and when we took him back in December (6, at Los Alamitos), Pete Miller did us a favor, ‘cause he...

Pompano – Sunday – Feb 28th

RACE ONE EARLY DOUBLE- 2-2, 2-4, 2-6 PICK-5 – 2 w 2,4,6 w 2,5,7 w 1,7 w 2,3,4 2-STARLIGHT KID…was in a tough situation trying to join the fray in a 1:50.4 but dented quick backside panel. Dips a bit! 8-TERANADAWN…will be on the bullet train when gate opens. Initial quarter took something out of him in last. In easier. 4-SOUTHERN WINDS…gets some class relief here, drew well and can catch live cover to “make” the ticket. 11 for 47 life.

RACE TWO 6-BLUERIDGE DANCER…made sharp double bubble move 3/8s out in last & dented quick 3d panel. Can turn it on late. 4-ZAVAN…not much on paper these days but takes yet another dip in class and should be a lot tighter. Should be a price! 2-UNION MAN HANOVER…hadn’t drawn a good post in a month and now gets class relief to go along with it. Better spot.

RACE THREE 2-LITTLEBITACLASS…dips back down to the same level as Jan. 31 in which he was used hard early. Can do damage off pace. 7-ALL STEINAM…last time in this class, blew the sox off field with backside blitz. Follows cover this time around from...

Turfway Park by Bret Battaglia’s Picks: Saturday, Feb. 27

Race 1

ROCKIN’ MELODY won by five going a mile and a half last time out and should be able to handle the extra distance tonight. LUNE DE CARO has been off since November when he was going longer over hurdles. He should be able to handle the distance tonight and could be dangerous here if he takes to the Polytrack. DO THE MATH looks capable of running well here.

Race 2

LUSTY GIT YER GUN comes in off a third place finish against similar and looked sharp winning before that one, give her a slight edge here. THREE SHEETS exits the same two races as the top pick and would be no surprise here. DISCREET KISS didn’t fire last time out, but is capable of better.

Race 3

STRONG RESPONSE was well beaten as the favorite last time out, but ran two solid races here at Turfway before that one and is the choice for the win here. ARTIC SKY moves back down in class and looks like the one to beat. PEACE AT LAST figures to move forward in his second start back from a layoff and has had success over the track in the past.

Race 4

CLOVELLY has been in good form since moving to Turfway, with two...
