My first inclination was to dump on Lethal Heat, at I know will be short betting odds, because Heat has such a great record ont he downhill turf course at Santa Anita.
But, then, I began to look harder at the race. Now, my handicapping skills tell me that La Tee is the best bet in the Grade III Monrovia, the eighth race on the card at Santa Anita Park today.
The last time horseplayers saw La Tee, she as struggling home 10th by 13 3/4 lengths in the Breeders' Cup Filly and Mare Turf Sprint. One of the problems, of course, is that the Turf Sprint was loaded with speed.
Not so today where La Tee figures to be close to either a softer pace or actually even leading the field into the top of the stretch.
I like her to steal the Monrovia on the front end today.
I'll put La Tee with Lethal Heat an the Bobby Frankel trained Jibboom in exactas and trifectas.
