SANTA ANITA TO RE-OPEN MAR. 22 REGALLY BRED By Bill Finley GETS THE JOB DONE IN Barring any further problems with the main track, Santa Anita will resume racing Mar. 22, The Stronach Group=s COO Tim Ritvo TAMPA BAY told the TDN. In addition, the main track will re-open for training Monday. Though the track has been deemed ready, TSG delayed the re-opening until Mar. 22 to give horsemen time to get their fit after the interruptions in training. A[Former Santa Anita track superintendent] Dennis Moore thinks the track is perfect,@ Ritvo said. AIn fact, he said it is 100%. The point is, I think we=re in really good shape.@ The Mar. 9 card that was canceled because of concerns for the track conditions included several stakes races. Ritvo said the GII San Felipe S. will not be run this year. The GI Santa Anita H. will be contested. Ritvo said it will likely be part of the GI Santa Anita Derby card April 6. He said every attempt will be made to reschedule all the races, except the San Felipe, that were scrapped while the track has been shut down.

However, fellow Juddmonte homebred Tacitus () made amends for his stablemate with a late- running victory in stakes record-setting time in the GII Lambholm South Saturday, officially putting himself on the GI Derby with 50 points. Fourth in his 1 1/16-mile unveiling at Belmont Oct. 4, Tacitus donned cap and gown by a neck next out going a mile at Aqueduct Nov. 10. Running on Lasix for the first time in this class hike, the son of champion (First Defence) broke a step slower than the rest, but quickly got his hooves beneath him and moved up to mid-pack, running off the fence as Zenden (Fed Biz) led GIII Sam F. Davis S. victor Well Defined (With Distinction) through early fractions of :22.79 and :45.85. Tucked in to save ground by Jose Ortiz, the 8-1 shot split horses to improve his position turning for home and slipped past the tiring pacesetter in the final sixteenth to score. Outshine (Malibu Moon) charged at Tacitus late, but it proved to be too late and he had to settle for second over Win Win Win (Hat Trick {Jpn}).

CAPEZZANO SILENCES THUNDER SNOW DREAM NIGHT FOR By Kelsey Riley All eyes were on last year=s G1 winner GODOLPHIN AT MEYDAN Thunder Snow (Ire) (Helmet {Aus}) in his first appearance since a brave third in the Nov. 3 GI Breeders= Cup Classic in Saturday=s G1 Al Maktoum Challenge R3, but the 5-year-old could not keep pace with the rapidly improving 5-year-old gelding Capezzano (Bernardini), who extended his record to three-for-three in 2019 and posted his second straight open-length win. Capezzano is lightly raced for a 5-year-old, and he was making his 14th trip to the starting gate on Saturday. He was expatriated to Dubai after making just one start in Britain at two, and was third behind Thunder Snow in the G3 UAE 2000 Guineas and filled the same position in the Listed Al Bastakiya on this card two years ago. He picked up a handicap win going a mile last year but was beaten out of sight on two tries over 2000 metres, including in this race, where he was beaten 48 lengths. Cont. p3
