Santa Anita: Analyzing Sunday’s $67,799 Pick 6 carryover

An action-packed weekend of racing at Santa Anita continues on Sunday with a $67,799 carryover in the traditional $2 Pick 6. The final pool is estimated to reach $500,000.

Santa Anita: Race 4: $67,799 Pick 6 carryover (5:36 p.m. ET)

A Pick 6 with a $2 minimum bet amount quickly gets expensive to play. Finding a trustworthy single to build tickets around can help keep costs within reason.

Our best recommendation for a single on Sunday is #2 Scatify (7-5) in Race 5, the second leg of the sequence. Race 5 is a $10,000 claimer for older horses who have never won two races, and the six-furlong dirt dash should be the perfect spot for Scatify to secure his second win.

Back in 2024, Scatify was a stakes-caliber three-year-old who finished second in the Affirmed S. and third in the Robert B. Lewis (G3) at Santa Anita. His form has slipped since then, but nevertheless he’s cracked the trifecta in three of his last four dirt starts, all against tougher competition than he’ll face on Sunday. Three starts back, Scatify finished second by a head in a $50,000 starter allowance dashing 6 1/2 furlongs at Los Alamitos, earning a career-best 92 Brisnet Speed rating.

Dropping in class for a $10,000 claimer should make Scatify tough to beat. Pick 6 players can feel confident singling him at a short price.

The feature event in the Pick 6 sequence is Race 8, the Santa Ysabel (G3) for three-year-old fillies racing 1 1/16 miles on dirt. #6 Super Corredora (1-1), a gate-to-wire winner of the 2025 Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies (G1), is the most accomplished entrant. But she faltered in her 2026 debut, finishing fourth in the Las Virgenes S. after dueling for the early lead.

Super Corredora is eligible to rebound in her second run of the season, but she’s facing several up-and-coming rivals, and we can’t recommend singling her. Use promising maiden winners #3 French Blue (9-2) and #5 Forced Entry (4-1) for good measure. The former is stretching out off a debut win sprinting; the latter exits a 7 1/4-length romp in a one-mile maiden special weight and has the red-hot jockey/trainer duo of Juan Hernandez and Bob Baffert in her corner.

Good luck!
