A short but classy field of six will be greeted by\u00a0Tokyo Downs starter Masonuri Murakami on Saturday when they assemble for The Hearty Harry Bonanza Stakes\u00a0to be run at one mile and one-sixteenth over the turf course.\u00a0 Here are the starters from the hedge out.<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
Breaking from gate one will be a familiar face from a long, long time ago, the venerable Urban A La Annual<\/STRONG>.\u00a0 The almost white son of Lit De Justice\u00a0broke his maiden at first asking before Y2K and last won\u00a0while Bill Clinton was in the White House.\u00a0 The old boy was a dual stakes winner in 2000 but, despite a series of solid workouts, will\u00a0probably need this start, his first in over four years.\u00a0<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
Lbailey’s 4YO Fantastic Light colt, Near Fantastic<\/STRONG>,\u00a0needed a drop to $50,000 claimers in order to\u00a0snap a\u00a0five race\u00a0losing streak.\u00a0 He did it in eye catching fashion going from worst to first with a huge final half surge.\u00a0 This handsome fellow was a multiple stakes winner at two but will find this group much tougher than those 50K claimers.\u00a0 Needs to take a big step forward\u00a0if he\u00a0hopes to defy his 14-1 odds.<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
Graded winner Sadler Mambo<\/STRONG> will go over the million dollar mark in career earnings with any top five finish.\u00a0 The impeccably bred (Sadler’s Wells x Kingmambo x Affirmed) stallion annexed the Our Theaters Special last time out.\u00a0 In that contest he came flying down the lane to post a going away victory in a swift 1:41 for the grassy mile and a sixteenth.\u00a0 Second choice at 2-1 and looks like a very formidable threat.<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
Three year old Proud Lomond<\/STRONG> faces older foes for the first time.\u00a0 Bbudgies’ Seattle Dancer colt won four of his first five career starts.\u00a0 That streak earned him a pair of stakes\u00a0runs\u00a0and he snagged checks in both races.\u00a0 He was a sharp second last time out and posted a spiffy 107 speed figure in the process.\u00a0 Seems to have a big upside and\u00a0poses a\u00a0threat if he can take another step forward.<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
Adore The Raider<\/STRONG>\u00a0 is a nice looking three year old filly.\u00a0 After terrorizing starter allowance company for months, trainer Pinerivers sold the filly he’d claimed for $15,000 at auction for a huge profit.\u00a0 New owner Amber quickly found her Lion Cavern\u00a0filly unable to handle stakes caliber foes and wisely exhausted\u00a0the starter tag last time out.\u00a0 Very unlikely to enjoy much racing luck against this bunch.<\/DIV>
\u00a0<\/DIV>
Race favorite Twice Told Tales<\/STRONG> returns to stakes competition following a brief respite against allowance foes.\u00a0 The big Java Gold five year old beat up on three consecutive allowance fields while prepping for his comeback.\u00a0 Twice Told Tales is best remembered for his victory in the 2004 Grade III Tally Ho Mile, a race he won by a block in an eye popping 1:33.4.\u00a0 Although rightly\u00a0favored, it must be remembered that this horse hasn’t won a stake in almost a year.\u00a0 So accepting the low price on him may not be a wise decision.<\/DIV>
