There’s a $198,741 Pick Six carryover at Santa Anita for Friday, February 27, and with a two-day carryover, the total pool is expected to climb north of seven figures. That’s the kind of opportunity I circle.
I’ve taken a couple of shots at similar carryovers this meet on $16 tickets—cashable efforts with four and five winners. Now I’m looking to land the full six. Here’s how I’m attacking it using the Complete Digest and its projected Fire Numbers, CPR, Fast Figs, and Final Time Ratings.
Race 4 – Maiden Claiming $20,000 (Cal-Breds)
One Mile – Main Track
The mile on dirt has played speed-friendly:
- Front runners: 33% wins
- Pressers: 57% wins
- Midpack: 9.5%
- Deep closers: 0%
With only five horses entered, positioning is critical.
Key Contenders
- #1 Bandelero (7/5 ML) – Drops from tougher company and stretches back out. Inside post fits the profile.
- #2 Bossing Mo (3/1 ML) – Stretching out after sprint efforts. Strong early speed and competitive figures.
- #5 Oswald (5/2 ML) – Best projected Fire Number and CPR, but shipping from Turf Paradise raises class questions.
Race 5 – Allowance Optional Claiming (State-Breds)
One Mile – Turf
Turf mile profile:
- Front/Pressers: 52% combined
- Midpack: 41%
- Deep closers: 5.9%
You don’t want to be too far back.
