Carrying a top weight of 122 pounds is Medici Code who is looking for a victory since winning the 1 1/8 turf mile Del Mar Derby (gr. IIT) last September. The 4-year-old Medicean gelding trained by Darrell Vienna was fifth in the Indiana Derby (gr. II), then came back to the turf for a 2nd place finish in the Hollywood Derby (gr. IIT) and a 3rd place finish in the San Gabriel Handicap (gr. IIT) at Santa Anita last December.
Champs Elysees, trained by Bobby Frankel, is a full brother to champions Intercontinental and Banks Hill and grade I winner Cacique, as well as Brazilian grade I victor Heroi Do Bafra. Juddmonte Farms’ homebred Champs Elysees finished 2nd after Sunriver in the Hollywood Turf Cup last December.
Todd Pletcher’s Rocket Legs, who his maiden on the sixth try in a 1 1/2 mile turf route at Kentucky Downs last September, is making his graded stakes debut. The 4-year-old Dynaformer colt has won two other races and finished 2nd in a 1 1/8 mile allowance with all three starts coming over synthetic surfaces since then.
Santa Anita Park’s $150,000 San Marcos Stakes is scheduled as the 9th race on Saturday’s card. Approximate post time is 4:07 pm PST.
