Practical Move Makes Stylish Return to the Races

[Wandering Eyes]

Gone since his nose victory in the spring in the GI Santa Anita Derby over Japanese invader Mandarin Hero (Jpn) (Shanghai Bobby), Practical Move (c, 3, Practical Joke–Ack Naughty, by Afleet Alex) made it look like he never left–jumping in service of first-time Lasix, comfortable at every call before inhaling the leading GISW Tripoli (Kitten's Joy) coming off the turn, and cruising home to a stylish victory, his fourth in a row. Tripoli hung on for second while MGSW Newgrange (Violence) fought back from the rail to hold third.

PRACTICAL MOVE ($2.80) and @JockeyRamonVazq made his return to the races a winning one in @santaanitapark race 8. This colt by @coolmoreamerica's Practical Joke was trained by @timyakteen.

One to go at Santa Anita, wager on https://t.co/nBYFHiPrdh! pic.twitter.com/WswX2nYy9d
