Glory Impresses at Santa Anita

Glory, a three-year-old filly trained by Jerry Hollendorfer, looked very good breaking her maiden at Santa Anita this afternoon! Sent off as the 4-5 favorite in a 6 1/2-furlong maiden special weight, Glory broke quickly and pressed longshot Kiana Believes through an opening quarter in :22.46, then easily took command through a half-mile in :45.52 and drew off under urging to win by just over two lengths over the late-running Wild at Heart. The final time of 1:15.06 was nearly a second quicker than the promising three-year-old Guy Code ran in winning an allowance event one race earlier on the card.
