Hollywood Park Today – July 5

Sunday (7-4-10) Hollywood Park Recap

Edge to early-pressing types (4 wire jobs) on both surfaces.

Three more wins for the red hot Joel Rosario. Mike Puype saddled two winners on the afternoon.

Global Hunter edged pacesetter Temple City in the 71st running of the Grade 2 American Handicap for grass males. The winner reportedly injured his ankle after the finish.

Monday (7-5-10) Hollywood Park Preview

A 9-race card is on tap for Monday and the feature is the Grade 3 Hollywood Juvenile Championship for 2-year-olds dashing six furlongs on Cushion Track. Willard Proctor Memorial hero J P’s Gusto is the 7-5 morning line favorite to make it two straight. Partly cloudy skies are expected with a high temperature of 66. The aforementioned feature race is my Horse Racing Nation Play of the Day. I have included analysis of the Monday finale below.

HOL 9 (MSW, 2yo fil, 5T) #2 Pedaltothemedal (5-1) is out of a 17% first turf sire and sports a good looking gate bullet. #4 Alienation (3-1) is out of solid grass sire Rock Hard Ten and dam has tossed a turf winner. Baffert saddled a debut turf sprint juvenile winner on Sunday. #5 Big Tiz (4-1) sports a pair of local bullets and attracts hot jock rosario. Dam has tossed a turf winner and barn (Glatt) also has Tiznow offspring and 2-time local turf winner It Tiz. The Plays: #2 to win, Quinella 2/4-5
