Horse racing newsletter: Guessing at Hot Rod Charlie’s next race
Hello, my name is John Cherwa and welcome back to our horse racing newsletter as we get ready for a really full card at Santa Anita.
It’s been two weeks since the Belmont Stakes and, looking back, the winner was Essential Quality, but the star was Hot Rod Charlie. He went to the lead, threw down some fast fractions, and then battled the rest of the 1½-mile race. He finished a very game second.
We have an affinity for Chuck, as he’s known by some of owners, because he’s based at Santa Anita in the barn of Doug O’Neill.
We caught up with O’Neill by phone Friday to find out where we will next see the colt. O’Neill didn’t spill; we think he honestly isn’t 100% sure. But we sure got some hints.
“He’s doing fantastic back in California,†O’Neill said. “We’re going to breeze him [Saturday] with Flavien Prat. We’ve got a lot of options. The owners and I have talked about being patient and we’ll let Charlie tell us where his next competition will be.
“The [Breeders’ Cup] Classic is on the table, Haskell is on the table, the Travers is on the table. And the Penn Derby; there are a lot of races on the table. We’re going to let him decide through his exercising and appetite to tell us when he’s ready.â€
What O’Neill described is a pretty big table, but one thing not mentioned was keeping him home and running him in the Pacific Classic at Del Mar.
“It’s so tempting to keep him in his own age group,†O’Neill said, an indication that the Pacific Classic is not in his plans as Chuck would have to run against older horses. “The Haskell, on paper, is ample time.â€
It doesn’t rule out the Travers as the race after that. The Haskell, at Monmouth Park in New Jersey, is on July 17. The Travers, at Saratoga, is Aug. 28.
“The great thing about these owners is that they don’t get further than the next race,†O’Neill said. “There is a lot of wiggle room.â€
Now, if Hot Rod Charlie goes in the Haskell, he may be running against Kentucky Derby winner Medina Spirit. Trainer Bob Baffert had Medina Spirit work three furlongs in 37.60 on Friday. Baffert has won the Haskell nine times.
We all would like to see that matchup.

Santa Anita review
I had another race as the feature in my preview Friday, but Mike Willman of Santa Anita correctly decided the best race was the sixth and allowance/optional claimer for horses going six furlongs. The reason for that was the return of Dr. Schival, who hasn’t run since Sept. 7 when he won the Grade 1 Del Mar Futurity. It wasn’t easy, as he languished off the pace until finding a seam in the two spot coming off the far turn and then ran down Canadian Pride to win by a neck.
Dr. Schival paid $4.40, $2.60 and $2.20. Canadian Pride was second, followed by Speed Pass, Fight On and Liam’s Pride.
“He broke sharp and then a couple steps outta there, he kinda stutter-stepped a little and I think he lost a little bit of early position,†winning trainer Mark Glatt said. “Those other horses pretty much had him down in a spot there where he was in a lot of trouble, but the most impressive thing was, when Flavien did get him off the inside, and in a place where he could let him run, he said ‘You’re not beating me.’ He came and got that horse.
“A lot of horses at that point might have said ‘Hey, uncle for today,’ but he just pinned his ears and came after that horse and got him. We’ve actually been hoping he’d come back and run a race like this in his comeback race. There are a couple races for 3-year-olds at Saratoga in August and we’ve been planning on getting him back there. That kinda keeps us from stretching him out. There will be a time to stretch him out, but if we can take a shot at a Grade 1 at the end of August for 3-year-olds, that’s gonna be right up his alley.â€
Santa Anita preview
It’s the second of three straight 11-race cards to finish the meeting. It’s an incredible card with no claiming races (other than the allowance/optional claimers). There are four stakes, four maiden specials and three allowance/optional claimers. Six of the races (the odd-numbered ones) are on the turf. Let’s get to the previews.
$75,000 Siren Lure Stakes. Texas Wedge, for trainer Peter Miller and jockey Umberto Rispoli, is the 2-1 favorite in this 6½-furlong turf race. He has won six of 22 races and is coming off a third at a minor stakes at Lone Star Park. His did finish 11th in the Breeders’ Cup Turf Sprint at Keeneland. So, they thought he had the potential to run at a high level. Chasin Munny is the 5-2 second choice for Mark Glatt and Prat. He has won three of five and this is his first stakes race. Post is around 2:06 p.m.
$150,000 Snow Chief Stakes. This is the first of two stakes restricted to 3-year-old Cal-breds, here going 1-1/8 miles on the turf. None Above the Law is the 9-5 favorite for Miller and Prat. He has won four of 10 and is coming off two straight stakes wins at Golden Gate, the Silky Sullivan and Alcatraz Stakes. Found My Ball is the second choice at 7-2 for O’Neill and Mario Gutierrez. He has won one of six and finished second last out in an allowance/optional claimer. Post is in the neighborhood of 5:23 p.m.
$150,000 Melair Stakes. This one is like the previous except for fillies going 1-1/16 miles on the dirt. Fi Fi Pharoah (wonder who the sire is?) is the 5-2 second choice for Walther Solis and Rispoli. She’s coming off a maiden special win in her fourth start. Eddie’s New Dream is the 3-1 second choice for Ben Cecil and Gutierrez. She broke her maiden in her second start and finished third and second in her last two starts. This one has 5:56 p.m. start.
Grade 3 $100,000 San Juan Capistrano Stakes. This is one of the few races that use the full downhill course. The 1¾-mile grass race starts at the top and the horses go around twice. Acclimate is the 9-5 favorite for Phil D’Amato and Roberto Gonzalez. The 7-year-old gelding has won six of 24 races. He’s coming off a second in the 1¼-mile Charlie Whittingham. He won this race in 2019. Red King (D’Amato, Rispoli) and Ward ‘N Jerry (Mike Puype/Prat) are the 5-2 second choices. Red King was third last out in the Whittingham. Ward ‘N Jerry is coming off two allowance wins and finished third in this race last year. Post is a very late 6:29 p.m.
Here are the field sizes, in order: 12 (2 also eligible), 7, 7, 7, 12 (2 ae), 4, 12, 9, 9, 8, 6.
Ciaran Thornton’s SA pick of the day
FIRST RACE: No. 10 Starship Endeavor (15-1)
Starship Endeavor is ridden by Jessica Pyfer for trainer Bob Hess Jr. Jessica has won many a value play for us this year with her weight break. Starship flashed sharp early speed last time out before getting caught. We all know today’s tactic: Pop the gate from the 10 post, take the lead and win gate-to-wire for us at 15-1. A couple of sharp works since the last race add to the appeal.
Friday’s result: Cupid’s Claw was simply overmatched and finished fourth of four, a rather disappointing performance.

Chris Wade’s LA pick of the day
SECOND RACE: No. 5 Castle Gate (7-2)
He loves this distance and racing surface with a record of three wins, four second-place finishes and one lonely third place from a total of eight races here during the day/night meets. The most recent, crushing win, 27 nights ago, earned this hard knocker a career-best figure on my charts and that number is best in here right back again Saturday. With at least three needing-the-lead runners signed up in here to set up this gelding’s turn time style of racing, we’ll push this professional racehorse steadily for a top tier placing at a medium mutual.

MISS BELLATRIX stalked from inside, was in a bit tight early on the far turn, angled to the three path, drew alongside the leader in upper stretch, cleared at the eighth pole, drifted inside and edged away. LOOKOUT POINT settled along the inside, coaxed at the quarter pole, steered out upper stretch and rallied for the place.

CIDER APPLE (GB) unhurried in the beginning, advanced while angling out on the far turn, chased eight wide in upper stretch, dueled with the runner-up in the final furlong and dug in late for the score. NORMA JEAN B. settled off the pace, advanced four wide on the far turn, took over in upper stretch and got bumped by rival shortly after, responded when challenged by CIDER APPLE in the late stages but got edged in the closing moments. CIELO D'ORO traveled mid-pack through the early stages, exited the far turn three wide, angled out in the lane and finished willingly for the show. LOOKINTOGETEVEN moved to the inside while near the back of the pack, was in a bit tight between runners at the three-eighths, got bumped by rival at the quarter pole, came in tight quarters again and bumped rival in upper stretch, kept on through the final furlong and got outfinished for third. RHYTHM AND GRACE broke in and bumped rival at the start, chased off the rail, bid around the far turn and took control into the lane, lost command in upper stretch and weakened. BROOKLYNS BEST bumped with inside rival and steadied early, drifted out and bumped at the quarter pole, angled out in upper stretch and failed to threaten. UNDISTURBED was away quickly and pulled early, settled into a tracking position near the inside, pulled or steadied briefly at the half-mile pole, was in tight along the fence on the second turn, entered the lane two wide and could not rally. ASSIGNATION became fractious in the gate, got bumped at the start, chased two wide into the lane, lacked room near the eighth pole, angled to the inside then back out but could not regain momentum. LA GIOIOSA (FR) bumped with rival early, sped to the front from inside, cleared the field and set the pace, led clear to the three-eighths pole, challenged around the far turn and fought back through the bend, lost the lead into the stretch and gave way. RUBY'S ORCHID was extremely rank and pulled up early and walked off. THE TRAINER OF LOOKINTOGETEVEN LODGED AN OBJECTION AGAINST NORMA JEAN B. AND CIDER APPLE FOR INTERFERENCE IN UPPER STRETCH. AFTER A REVIEW, THE STEWARDS RULED THAT LOOKINTOGETEVEN WAS IN TIGHT QUARTERS AND INITIATED THE CONTACT WITH NORMA JEAN B. AND THERE WOULD BE NO CHANGE.
