Frankel, Daytona highlight New Year's Day at Santa Anita

GO FORTH NORTH (North Light [Ire]) looks like the only plausible upset

possibility. A narrow winner of the Harold C. Ramser Sr. H. (G3) during the Oak

Tree meet, she ran a decent third in the Matriarch S. (G1) in her sophomore

finale. SPRING STYLE (Ire) (Pivotal), who was unplaced in all five graded stakes

attempts in 2010, and the vastly overmatched POWEROFVOODOO (Unusual Heat)

complete the quartet.

QUICK ENOUGH (High Brite) is the likely favorite in the Daytona. After an

initial stakes score in the Morvich H. (G3) across town at Hollywood Park, the

lightly-raced seven-year-old finished 10th of 14 in the Breeders' Cup Turf

Sprint (G2) and second in the Miles Tyson S. over Hollywood's Cushion Track.

DILEMMA (Grand Slam) and AFLEET RULER (Northern Afleet), second and fourth,

respectively, in the Morvich, last met in the November 28 Wild Harmony S. at

Hollywood where they respectively finished sixth and second. Conqueror of that

six-furlong turf dash was DANCE WITH GABLE (Dance Floor), who owns a perfect

three-for-three mark down Santa Anita's hillside lawn.

REGALLY READY (More Than Ready), who came home a 7 3/4-length winner in his

turf debut in a November 20 allowance at Churchill Downs, is another interesting

prospect for trainer Steve Asmussen.
