DERBY FEVER HEATS UP SANTA ANITA TO EXPERIMENT WITH WHIP-FREE RACING by Dan Ross WITH TRIO OF FINAL PREPS Next Friday, Apr. 12, jockeys riding at Santa Anita will do so without a whip, according to a letter the Jockeys= Guild sent Friday to the California Board (CHRB), Santa Anita management, the Owners of California (TOC), and the California Thoroughbred Trainers (CTT). Current CHRB law doesn=t require jockeys to carry a riding crop, and as such, Aindividual jockeys who regularly ride at Santa Anita have elected not to carry the cushioned riding crop during the entire race day card on Friday, Apr. 12,@ the letter states. The decision by the Jockeys= Guild and the Santa Anita jockey colony follows a proposed rule change approved by the CHRB at its last scheduled meeting, which restricts riders to using riding crops only Ato control the horse for the safety of the horse or rider.@ The proposed rule change was subsequently put out for a 45-day public comment period, and could be amended before the board votes on it again.

He returned in a big way in a one-mile optional claimer at Santa Anita Mar. 1, defeating the re-opposing Nolo Contesto (Pioneerof the Nile) by 2 1/2 lengths. Instagrand (Into Mischief) is another hoping to get back on a winning track after losing his perfect record last time. Scoring dominant victories in both his Los Alamitos debut June 29 and the GII Best Pal S. Aug. 11, the >TDN Rising Star= was voluntarily sent to the bench by his owner Larry Best with an eye on a sophomore campaign. The $1.2 million FTFMAR co-topper checked in third as the favorite after chasing a hot pace when going beyond six furlongs for the first time in the one-mile GIII Gotham S. at Aqueduct last time Mar. 9. He enters this off a pair of bullet works, most recently covering five panels at Los Al in a best-of-17 :59 2/5 Mar. 30.
