Pair of graded races on tap at Hollywood Park

by Jarrod Horak on May 9th, 2008

Two grade three events are carded at Hollywood on May 10th, starting with the Senorita (race 7) for three-year-old fillies traveling a flat mile on the turf.

Lovely Isle is the inside speed for 24% first grass trainer Robert Frankel, and Dominguez was aboard for her most impressive score. Come and get the daughter of Double Honor.

Sweeter Still is razor sharp and versatile, and she projects the first run trip should Lovely Isle falter.

Gorgeous Goose was on her game late last year, but she was a bit flat in her last pair versus similar. She reunites with her favorite pilot Valdivia and is 1-1 over the local green. Expect a decent late run in her 3rd race off the shelf.

Bel Air Sizzle has won three races on the turf this year, and that is not surprising with Unusual Heat on top. She packs a strong stretch kick and Abrams has been on a roll at the current stand.

Street Boss makes his much anticipated stakes debut in the Los Angeles Handicap (race 9). Versatile son of Street Cry is a neck away from four straight tallies. His last figure was his best yet, and that race was validated when place finisher Tropic Storm returned to score.

Bonfante always runs his race on any footing, and his off the pace rally should be good for a share at the very least.

Win type Doppio defeated Street Boss in February and is 4-5 on synthetic ground. He failed to fire his best shot at Keeneland (polytrack) last time but should appreciate a return to Southern California.

Bilo, shown above winning the Triple Bend last July, is a dangerous synthetic sprinter. He meets multiple speed types but can handle pace pressure.
