This post and companion video features In-depth Santa Anita Pick 6 carryover analysis for Feb 20. Race-by-race betting strategy, singles, pace insights and a budget ticket from Today’s Racing Digest.
The Pick 6 carryover amount is $34,288 and the sequence begins with the fourth race.
On a card that looks fairly logical on paper, I’m approaching this sequence with a budget-minded strategy — leaning on pace advantages, projected figures, and a few well-placed singles. The past performance data referenced throughout comes from the Complete Digest, and I’ll be using Fire Numbers, CPR, Fast Figs, and Final Time Ratings to break down each leg.
Race 4 – $8,000 Claiming (1 Mile, Dirt)
Profile: Speed-favoring mile distance.
This race sets up as a two-horse battle on paper.
Top Contenders
- #1 Austonian – Best Fire Number (82), best CPR, and top Final Time Rating (120). Strong overall class profile.
- #6 Tougherthantherest – Front-running type with the top Fast Fig (115).
From a pace standpoint, Tougherthantherest figures to be forward early, and at this mile configuration, that’s often dangerous. Austinian brings the most complete figure profile — pace, class, and finishing ability.
I see this race flowing through those two runners.
My Betting Takeaway: Use #1 and #6. Logical two-deep start to the sequence.
