Kanthaka (Jimmy Creed) cuts back to one turn for Saturday's GIII Lazaro Barrera S. at Santa Anita. The impressive GII San Vicente S. winner followed a third-place finish in the GII San Felipe S. with a sixth-place finish in the GII Toyota Blue Grass S. at Keeneland Apr. 7. The rail-drawn West Point colorbearer is the 9-5 morning-line favorite.
Hall of Famer Bob Baffert will be represented by 'TDN Rising Star' Zulfikhar (Bodemeister) and McKale (Congrats), one-two in a $75,000 optional claimer going 6 1/2 furlongs at Santa Anita Apr. 15.
