LONDON — 

Prime Minister Boris Johnson grudgingly asked the European Union late Saturday to delay Brexit after the British Parliament postponed a decision on whether to back his divorce deal. But the defiant Johnson also made clear that he personally opposed delaying the U.K.’s exit, scheduled for Oct. 31.

A law passed by Parliament last month set a late-night deadline for the government to send a letter asking the EU for a three-month postponement if lawmakers had not approved an agreement with the bloc by Saturday. An hour before the deadline, European Council President Donald Tusk tweeted: “The extension request has just arrived. I will now start consulting EU leaders on how to react.”

Johnson made clear he was making the request under duress. The letter requesting an extension was not signed. It was accompanied by a second letter, signed by Johnson, arguing that delay would “damage the interests of the U.K. and our EU partners.”

Earlier in the day, Johnson told lawmakers that “further delay would be bad for this country, bad for the European Union and bad for democracy.”

French President Emmanuel Macron seemed to agree. Macron’s office said he spoke to Johnson by phone and insisted on the need for “quick clarification of the British position on the accord.” The president’s office said Macron indicated to the British prime minister that “a delay would be in no one’s interest.”

At a rare weekend sitting of Parliament, lawmakers voted 322 to 306 to withhold their approval of the Brexit deal until legislation to implement it has been passed.

The vote sought to ensure that the U.K. cannot crash out of the EU without a deal on the scheduled departure date. Johnson, who struck the agreement with the EU earlier this week, said he was not “daunted or dismayed” by the result and would continue to do all he can to get Brexit done in less than two weeks.

Parliament’s first weekend sitting since the Falklands War of 1982 had been dubbed “Super Saturday.” It looked set to bring Britain’s Brexit saga to a head, more than three years after the country’s divisive decision to leave the EU.

But the government’s hopes were derailed when House of Commons Speaker John Bercow said he would allow a vote on an amendment to put the vote on the deal off until another day.

The amendment makes support for the deal conditional on passage of the legislation to implement it, something that could take several days or weeks. It also gives lawmakers another chance to scrutinize — and possibly change— the Brexit departure terms while the legislation is in Parliament.

The government still hopes it can pass the needed legislation by the end of the month so the U.K. can leave on time.

The leader of the House of Commons, Jacob Rees-Mogg, said the government would hold a debate Monday on its Brexit-implementing legislation — essentially a second attempt to secure approval for the deal.

It’s unclear whether that would be allowed under House of Commons rules against holding repeated votes on the same question. Bercow said he would make a ruling Monday.

The vote was welcomed by hundreds of thousands of anti-Brexit demonstrators who marched to Parliament Square, demanding a new referendum on whether Britain should leave the EU or remain. Protesters, many wearing blue berets emblazoned with yellow stars symbolizing the EU flag, poured out of subways and buses for the last-ditch effort.

“Another chance for sanity and perhaps rationality to take over, rather than emotion,” filmmaker Jove Lorenty said as he stood outside Parliament. “Never give up until the fat lady sings. No one knows what will happen, but we have hope.”

Johnson, who came to power in July vowing to get Brexit finished, called any delay to Britain’s departure “pointless, expensive and deeply corrosive of public trust.” And he warned that the bloc’s approval could not be guaranteed.

“There is very little appetite among our friends in the EU for this business to be protracted by one extra day,” Johnson said. “They have had three and a half years of this debate.”

The EU was guarded in its response to Saturday’s vote.

“It will be for the U.K. government to inform us about the next steps as soon as possible,” EU Commission spokeswoman Mina Andreeva tweeted.

When push comes to shove, the EU seems likely to grant an extension if needed to avoid a disruptive no-deal Brexit.

Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki said his country saw the vote as a delay, rather than a rejection of the Brexit deal. For EU leaders, avoiding a chaotic, no-deal Brexit should be the “top priority,” he said in a tweet.

And the European Parliament’s chief Brexit official, Guy Verhofstadt, noted that time was now tight to get the deal approved by the EU legislature before Oct. 31, meaning a short delay might be needed.

If Parliament approves the Withdrawal Agreement Bill in time, Britain could still leave by the end of October. The government plans to introduce the bill next week and could hold late-night sittings of Parliament in hope of getting it passed within days.

But Johnson must win over a fractious and divided Parliament, which three times rejected the Brexit plan negotiated by his predecessor Theresa May.

His hopes of getting the deal through Parliament were dealt a blow when his Northern Ireland ally, the Democratic Unionist Party, said it would not back him. The party says Johnson’s Brexit package — which carves out special status for Northern Ireland to keep an open border with EU member Ireland — is bad for the region and weakens its bonds with the rest of the U.K.

To make up for the votes of 10 DUP lawmakers, Johnson has tried to persuade members of the left-of-center Labor Party to support the deal. Late Friday, the government promised to bolster protections for the environment and workers’ rights to allay Labor fears that the Conservative government plans to slash those protections after Brexit.

Labor leader Jeremy Corbyn dismissed the prime minister’s promises as inadequate.

“This deal is not good for jobs, damaging for industry and a threat to our environment and natural world,” he said. “Supporting the government this afternoon would merely fire the starting pistol in a race to the bottom in regulations and standards.”

WASHINGTON — 

A madly spinning news cycle has characterized the Trump presidency since Day One: Controversies that might once have played out over a week rise and fall in a day, swept aside by another and another and another.

The White House announcement that President Trump would host next summer’s Group of 7 meeting at his Doral resort in Florida, for example, got overshadowed within the course of a single news conference, as White House acting Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney committed the classic Washington error of unintentionally speaking the truth.

And so, it’s worth pausing for a moment to note that we’re just now four weeks into the Ukraine scandal that has generated an impeachment inquiry in the House. The story, like few others in the Trump era, has dominated political news for a month. And already, it’s reached a stage of public knowledge and impact that in the Watergate scandal of the 1970s took a year.

WHAT WE KNOW NOW

The initial White House strategy in the impeachment investigation was to stonewall.

In a letter 10 days ago, White House Counsel Pat Cipollone denounced the impeachment inquiry as “baseless” and “unconstitutional” and said the executive branch “cannot participate.” Administration officials attempted to block witnesses from appearing for depositions requested by House investigators.

That effort largely failed, foiled by quick subpoenas from the House and the willingness of current and former high-ranking officials to defy the White House and parade to the high-security room in the basement of the Capitol where Rep. Adam B. Schiff (D-Burbank), the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, and his colleagues and staff have interviewed them, often for 10 hours or more at a stretch.

Trump, who offers no loyalty to those who work for him, has received little in return.

The White House has had more success in preventing House investigators from getting documents, as a host of executive branch agencies, including the State Department and the Office of Management and Budget, have refused to comply with subpoenas. That could lead to a battle in court but also may provide grounds for an impeachment count related to obstruction, Democratic leaders have warned.

Schiff has kept the full testimony under wraps, justifying the secrecy as necessary to prevent witnesses from coordinating their stories or concocting covers. The committees will release transcripts, redacted to remove classified information, once the investigative part of the impeachment process ends, he told House members this week.

Despite that, enough of the testimony has reached the public — including opening statements from several witnesses and text messages among diplomats that Schiff released — to significantly fill out the case. And the plethora of leads has complicated Democratic efforts to wrap up the case before Thanksgiving, Jennifer Haberkorn reported.

The evidence to date, much of which is not disputed, shows Trump personally played the central role in holding up military aid that the Ukrainians viewed as crucial to their security and insisting that the price of releasing it would be a Ukrainian announcement of investigations into his political opponents.

The evidence shows that in the spring, Trump told Mulvaney to hold up some $400 million in military aid to Ukraine that Congress had appropriated.

National security officials who asked about the delay in the aid did not receive an explanation. But Trump told U.S. diplomats and Energy Secretary Rick Perry, who was one of the administration’s chief contacts with the Ukrainians, that to resolve the situation, they needed to discuss it with his personal lawyer, Rudolph W. Giuliani.

The message from Trump was direct, Perry told the Wall Street Journal in an interview: “Visit with Rudy.” On Thursday, Perry announced his resignation.

Giuliani and two associates, Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman, meanwhile, held several meetings with Ukrainian officials aimed at getting the newly elected government of President Volodymyr Zelensky to announce an investigation into a gas company, Burisima, on the board of which Hunter Biden, the son of the former vice president, once sat.

They also wanted an investigation into whether Ukrainians had played a role in the hacking of the Democratic National Committee’s computer system in 2015 and 2016 — break-ins that U.S. intelligence have identified as coming from two Russian military cyber-warfare units. The theory that the hack came from Ukraine, not Russia, has circulated on right-wing media, without evidence, as a way of discrediting the investigations into Russian efforts to help Trump in the 2016 election.

Giuliani’s involvement so disturbed national security officials that John Bolton, Trump’s former national security advisor, told one of his deputies, Fiona Hill, to report the matter to White House lawyers.

“I am not part of whatever drug deal Sondland and Mulvaney are cooking up,” Bolton said, according to Hill’s testimony, referring to Gordon Sondland, the U.S. ambassador to the European Union, whom Trump had tapped to help coordinate the Ukraine effort.

Parnas and Fruman were arrested just over a week ago as they tried to leave the country and were charged with violating campaign finance laws. Prosecutors from the U.S. attorney’s office in Manhattan, which Giuliani once headed, are handling that case and are also looking at Giuliani’s activities, according to people with knowledge of the investigation.

Sondland, testifying Thursday, explicitly implicated Trump.

“I would not have recommended that Mr. Giuliani or any private citizen be involved in these foreign policy matters,” he said in his opening statement.

“However, based on the President’s direction, we were faced with a choice: We could abandon the goal of a White House meeting for President Zelensky, which we all believed was crucial to strengthening U.S.-Ukrainian ties and furthering long-held U.S. foreign policy goals in the region; or we could do as President Trump directed and talk to Mr. Giuliani to address the President’s concerns.”

He also testified that he knew Giuliani was demanding that the Ukrainians specifically say they were investigating Burisima but that he did not know until much later that Burisima was connected to Hunter Biden, a denial that Democrats find hard to believe.

Sondland, special envoy Kurt Volker and other U.S. diplomats worked through the spring and early summer to get the Ukrainians to issue a statement that would meet Giuliani’s terms.

Then, on July 25, Trump spoke by phone with Zelensky. When Zelensky reminded Trump of his country’s desire to buy U.S.-made Javelin antitank weapons, Trump, according to the account of the call that the White House released last month, responded: “I would like you to do us a favor though.”

He then went on to ask Zelensky to meet with Giuliani and specifically mentioned Biden.

As that evidence has unfolded, the White House has backed away from its insistence that there was “no quid pro quo” in Trump’s statements. Mulvaney made that explicit Thursday in a briefing for reporters. He later tried to take back his statement, but his words were clear:

“Absolutely. No question about that,” he said, acknowledging that Trump wanted Ukraine to investigate. “But that’s it, and that’s why we held up the money.”

To those who would see that as a problem, he had a simple response: “Get over it.”

HOW THE PUBLIC SEES IT

In the days immediately after the scandal first broke and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced the start of the impeachment inquiry, polls found a significant shift in public opinion, moving toward support for impeaching Trump.

Since then, support appears to have hit a plateau, most polls indicate. Democrats, who were divided over impeachment before the Ukraine news, now overwhelmingly support it. A large majority of Republicans have consistently opposed it.

New data released Thursday by the nonpartisan Pew Research Center show that about 9% of Americans have changed their views from opposition to support for impeachment since before the Ukraine stories broke. Most of those who shifted were Democrats, although about one in three were Republicans.

The number who have changed their minds is not huge, but in a country that’s deeply divided by partisanship, where the last election was determined by a tiny handful of voters in three key states, it’s a notable shift.

It’s also significant that multiple polls have shown Democrats more united on the issue than Republicans, with a significant minority of Republican voters seeing Trump’s actions as inappropriate and a smaller, but still notable, minority seeing them as impeachable.

“Get over it” may suffice to hold Trump’s core supporters — and with them the senators necessary to stave off conviction in the Senate — but it’s a risky strategy for ultimately saving Trump’s presidency.

SYRIA AND THE MELTDOWN

In the midst of the impeachment fight, Trump angered key Republican lawmakers by acquiescing in a Turkish attack against Kurdish forces in Syria who had served as key U.S. allies in the fight against the Islamic State militants.

As Noah Bierman and Sarah Wire wrote, Trump’s move to pull out a small contingent of U.S. troops that had served as a buffer between Turkish and Kurdish forces brought angry denunciations from senior Republicans, like Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina.

“This will be a disaster worse than President Obama’s decision to leave Iraq,” Graham said.

On Wednesday, the House passed a resolution condemning Trump’s pullout, 354 to 60, with a majority of Republicans voting against the administration.

Later that day, Trump met with the congressional leadership and delivered an angry diatribe aimed mostly at Pelosi, which she characterized as a “meltdown.”

On Thursday, Vice President Mike Pence arrived in Ankara, Turkey, on an urgent mission designed to salvage something from a foreign policy debacle. After about five hours of talks, Pence signed off on an agreement that gave the Turks almost everything they wanted, Eli Stokols reported from the scene.

Trump’s words and actions on Syria show his core, isolationist beliefs on foreign policy and provide strong suggestions of what he might do if he’s reelected, Doyle McManus wrote in his column.

THE DEMOCRATIC CAMPAIGN

The Democratic candidates held their fourth debate this week, as Melanie Mason, Evan Halper and Bierman wrote. Sen. Bernie Sanders looked healthier, Mayor Pete Buttigieg and Sen. Amy Klobuchar seemed feistier and Joe Biden didn’t commit any egregious faux pas, Mark Barabak noted in his takeaways from the debate. In short, the encounter seemed to largely cement the status quo.

The most notable aspect of the debate, as Janet Hook noted, was that rival candidates largely treated Sen. Elizabeth Warren as the front-runner.

As Hook wrote before the debate, Warren, 70, has succeeded in conveying an image of relative youth and vigor without ever specifically mentioning the ages of Biden, 73, or Sanders, 78. At least one recent survey found that most voters, asked to guess candidates’ ages, believed Warren was in her mid-60s while correctly pegging Sanders’ and Biden’s ages.

Halper reported on one of the most notable aspects of this year’s Democratic campaign: billionaires are the target to an extent that goes beyond any attacks on concentrated wealth seen since the 1930s.

Speaking of billionaires, Tom Steyer spent $47 million in 84 days on his presidential bid, Seema Mehta reported. That’s bought enough name recognition to get him into the debates, but going further will require the former hedge fund manager turned political activist to surmount some big hurdles.

Meanwhile, Mehta reported, Biden’s poor fundraising has left his campaign with much less cash on hand than his main rivals.

Of course, Biden’s fundraising isn’t so bad if you compare him with Wayne Messam, the mayor of Miramar, Fla. Messam says he’s running for president, but is he really? As Melissa Gomez reported, he reported raising $5 in the third quarter.

“I’m still technically in the race,” he told her.

WASHINGTON — 

President Trump says he is nominating a deputy to Energy Secretary Rick Perry to replace him in the top job at the Energy Department.

Trump tweeted Friday that Dan Brouillette’s experience in the area is “unparalleled” and calls him a “total professional.”

Trump also praised Perry, who plans to leave the Energy Department at the end of the year.

Perry’s departure comes as he is under scrutiny over the role he played in the president’s dealings with Ukraine, the focus of an ongoing impeachment inquiry.

WASHINGTON — 

The State Department has completed its internal investigation into former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s use of private email and found violations by 38 people, some of whom may face disciplinary action.

The investigation, launched more than three years ago, determined that those 38 people were “culpable” in 91 cases of sending classified information that ended up in Clinton’s personal email, according to a letter sent to Republican Sen. Charles E. Grassley this week and released on Friday. The 38 are current and former State Department officials but were not identified.

Although the report identified violations, it said investigators had found “no persuasive evidence of systemic, deliberate mishandling of classified information.” However, it also made clear that Clinton’s use of the private email had increased the vulnerability of classified information.

The Associated Press sent an email seeking comment to a Clinton representative.

The investigation covered 33,000 emails that Clinton turned over for review after her use of the private email account became public. The department said it found a total of 588 violations involving information then or now deemed to be classified but could not assign fault in 497 cases.

For current and former officials, culpability means the violations will be noted in their files and will be considered when they apply for or go to renew security clearances. For current officials, there could also be some kind of disciplinary action. But it was not immediately clear what that would be.

The report concluded “that the use of a private email system to conduct official business added an increased degree of risk of compromise as a private system lacks the network monitoring and intrusion detection capabilities of State Department networks.”

The department began the review in 2016 after declaring 22 emails from Clinton’s private server to be “top secret.” Clinton was then running for president against Donald Trump, and Trump made the server a major focus of his campaign.

Then-FBI Director James B. Comey held a news conference that year in which he criticized Clinton as “extremely careless” in her use of the private email server as secretary of State but said the FBI would not recommend charges.

The Justice Department’s inspector general said FBI specialists did not find evidence that the server had been hacked, with one forensics agent saying he felt “fairly confident that there wasn’t an intrusion.”

Grassley started investigating Clinton’s email server in 2017, when he was chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee. The Iowa Republican has been critical of Clinton’s handling of classified information and urged administrative sanctions.

On a night of introductions, the five-star freshmen expected to star for USC basketball this season nearly forgot to introduce themselves.

Onyeka Okongwu and Isaiah Mobley came into Friday night’s season-opening exhibition against Villanova carrying high hopes of keying a turnaround for a Trojans team that finished 16-17 last season. But in their much-anticipated Galen Center debuts, both freshmen took a while to find their footing.

By halftime, they’d barely touched the ball, with just one point and five rebounds combined, as the Trojans’ offense struggled.

But as USC came alive in the second half, jump-starting its offense on the way to a 72-61 victory over the Wildcats, it was Okongwu and Mobley who quietly keyed the run.

Okongwu, who carried the scoring load for USC during its summer trip to Europe, impressed down the stretch with his work around the basket, vacuuming up loose balls and taking advantage of second-chance opportunities.

He finished with a double-double in his USC debut, scoring 15 points and pulling down 10 rebounds.

Mobley, who finished with eight points, was scoreless until midway through the second half. But he scored five in a row soon after.

“There’s a lot of improvement in both of those young men,” USC coach Andy Enfield said. “They’re going to get better and better going forward.”

The Trojans turned the ball over 11 times in the first half and struggled to work inside.

“We were shooting ourselves in the foot in that first half,” Enfield said.

But USC was kept alive by another newcomer as the rest of the offense stalled. Daniel Utomi, a sharp-shooting graduate transfer from Akron, came out blazing in the first half, drilling his first four three-pointers. He finished with a team-high 15 points, including five of USC’s seven three-pointers.

In the second half, Okongwu and Mobley weren’t the only freshmen who turned heads. Point guard Ethan Anderson had a standout debut, running the second-team offense smoothly while scoring nine points and collecting five assists.

Racing! Jerry Hollendorfer out of Breeders’ Cup

October 19, 2019 | News | No Comments

Hello, my name is John Cherwa and welcome back to our horse racing newsletter as we ponder why race tracks don’t actually care enough about their fans to not run races on top of each other. But, for good news, we’ve got a handicapping lesson from Rob Henie.

Well, Hall of Fame trainer Jerry Hollendorfer makes the top of the newsletter for a second straight day. On Friday, the Breeders’ Cup denied him access to run or train in the Breeders’ Cup at Santa Anita on Nov. 1-2.

The response was a mild surprise as the prevailing guess was that the Breeders’ Cup would let him run. But, on Friday afternoon, Fred Hertrich, chairman of the board of the Breeders’ Cup said the group would “honor [Santa Anita’s] house rule and Jerry Hollendorfer will not be permitted to enter horses at this year’s event.”

This announcement came one day after the Breeders’ Cup said it “does not comment on the status of potential 2019 world championship entries.” So, I guess we need to modify that statement to add the words “… unless we want to comment on the status of potential 2019 world champion entries.”

The thinking here is that the announcement was made on Friday so that Hollendorfer will have time to move his two potential starters to other connections. There is Vasilika in the Fillies and Mares Turf and Danuska’s My Girl in the Fillies and Mares Sprint.

“Jerry does not want to impact any of his partners participation, so he wants to make sure those horses can run in the Breeders’ Cup,” said Drew Couto, Hollendorfer’s attorney.

Hollendorfer hasn’t had a good week as he also lost his attempt at gaining a temporary restraining order at Santa Anita so he could run in non-Breeders’ Cup races this meet. However, Couto is weighing the possibility of additional litigation that could get Hollendorfer back on the track for the Winter/Spring meeting, which begins Dec. 26.

“We don’t want to get ahead of ourselves,” Couto said of the possibility of any litigation in advance of the Breeders’ Cup. “Right now our focus is to get those horses to run in the Breeders’ Cup.”

Handicapping lesson from Rob Henie

Here’s our weekly contribution from Rob Henie of the WCHR (West Coast Handicapping Report) and the ECHR (East Coast Handicapping Report). Today’s analysis comes from the third race at Santa Anita and incorporates some handicapping angles into the mix. Rob, take it away.

This is a $25,000 N2L at 1 1/16 miles. We’re trying to beat the 2-1 morning-line choice in BOOGALUTE. See Negative Notes below. Top selection is LAGOON MACAROON (#2). Off the nine-month layoff, he returned for George Papaprodromou sprinting 5 ½, also claimed, telling us someone was watching and impressed with this guy off the time away, however, the claim was voided. It could have been something minor that occurred during the race, as he’s back in seven weeks, a good sign off the layoff, and as we often remind members, we love backing horses off a voided claim, why? No trainer wants to be known for sending out a horse with any issues, and with the microscope on the horse today following the void, the conditioner has to be sure the horse is perfect, and with good health, the door is open for a good effort. Throw in the fact they move out in distance, and when we consider all attributes entering this event, we have to believe improvement is coming, meaning a likely effective effort against this mediocre group. BROKE AWAY GREY (#5) is a 5-year-old making only his sixth lifetime start, thus obviously some issues here. However, this is his third straight effort, meaning he too has found renewed good health, with three drills since that last race 30 days ago, ideal, and a step forward today seems likely as well.

“Hot / Cold Race Trends: none

“Win Contenders (order of preference): 2-5

“X Out Runners (eliminating on the win end): none

“Negative Notes:

“4 Boogalute – Despite the fact he’s stringing three races together off the long layoff, we have a very tough time backing a horse who was placed poor in optional claimers, allowed to lose confidence right off the bat, showing nothing, now dropped drastically looking for something, with Flavien Prat and blinkers, but still not the direction we like to see from a horse who’s offering little value.

“TOP PICK: LAGOON MACAROON (#2 4-1 Maldonado)

“SECOND CHOICE: BROKE AWAY GREY (#5 3-1 Pereira)”

Can’t we just get along?

For reasons that remain near impossible to explain, races at Keeneland and Santa Anita were going at the same time on Friday. The third, fourth and fifth at Santa Anita and the eighth, ninth and 10th at Keeneland were on top of each other.

Poor TVG was forced to do the best it could and went with the full race at Keeneland, with audio, and Santa Anita in the split screen without audio. When Keeneland finished, TVG switched to the Santa Anita audio and full-screen picture. In the fifth race at Santa Anita, we didn’t get to hear Frank Mirahmadi until the horses were within the final sixteenth.

Now, to be clear, this is not TVG’s fault. It is the fact that two bigtime race tracks are either so clueless or don’t care enough that they are running on top of each other. As TVG’s Todd Schrupp pointed out the last time this happened, there are phones from one side of the country to the other.

Santa Anita review

Once he found racing room, Carnivorous charged to the lead to win a 5 ½ furlong allowance/optional claimer by half a length. The key words there were optional claimer as the horse was claimed by trainer Steve Knapp for $80,000.

Abel Cedillo, filling in for suspended Mario Gutierrez, was the winning jockey for the homebred for Paul Reddam.

Carnivorous was the favorite and paid $4.80, $2.80 and $2.20. Tiger Dad was second and One Flew South finished third.

“If you’re going to lose one [through a claim], it’s always nice to win,” winning trainer Doug O’Neill told Mike Willman of Santa Anita. “These Square Eddie’s keep winning and it’s a big credit to Ocean Breeze Farm, where he stands. He’s getting better and better mares and he’s just an unbelievable stallion for California. … Can’t wait to see his new babies in the spring.”

Santa Anita preview

I don’t know what to say about Santa Anita’s eight-race card on Saturday. It has a 12:30 p.m. start. There are four turf races, with the rail set at 20 feet. (Part of the save-the-turf-course for the Breeders’ Cup campaign.)

Five of the races are for Cal-breds and the second race is down to four horses. No show betting, of course.

Let’s look at the feature, the $100,000 California Flag Handicap, for horses going 5 ½ furlongs on the turf. OK, here are the ages of the horses, in post position order: 8, 8, 5, 6, 7, 7, 4. Huh? Does the winner get to retire or at least a rocking chair?

The favorite, at 9-5, is Tribalist for trainer Blake Heap and jockey Flavien Prat. This 8-year-old gelding is lightly raced having won four-of-13 lifetime. His last race was a fifth in the Eddie D. Stakes at the start of this meeting. He was off almost a year from mid-2018 to this year.

The second favorite is What a View at 3-1. This 8-year-old gelding, for Phil D’Amato and Tyler Baze, is eight-for-29 lifetime and used to be running at the Grade 1 level. He won the Frank E. Kilroe Stakes at Del Mar in 2016. His last race was seventh in the Del Mar Handicap. He, like the favorite, was also off almost a year from 2018 to this year.

Here are the field sizes, in order: 7, 4, 6, 8, 6, 7, 7, 10.

By the way, Golden Gate has 10 races and Santa Anita eight. When’s the last time that happened?

Ciaran Thornton’s SA pick of the day

RACE ONE: No. 5 Lucky Long Legs (10-1)

Lucky Long Legs fell asleep in the gate in the debut last month and was off very slow and late. The horse tracked last then made a very nice move up the rail mid stretch, was cut off and angled 4 wide then and make a late push. The horse passed other horses, was eager and the race replay looks a lot better than the result. Trainer Clifford Sise Jr. is outstanding first time grass like Saturday, winning 25% for a nice ROI and is also 18% 1st time routing for a profit. This is what this trainer excels at. Jockey Evin Roman is quietly having a very good meet winning 23%. 10-1 is excellent value for us.

Friday’s race: Not sure what to say about the trip Mongolian Legend had. The horse tracked perfectly into the stretch on the rail but had to then go five wide and ran third.

Ed Burgart’s LA pick of the day

SIXTH RACE: No. 6 Favorite Motion (3-1)

He has the most upside of the three favorites in this eight-horse field and should have been unsaddled when dropping a neck decision while third in the Golden State Derby two months ago. After getting bumped inward and knocked back during the first 30 yards, he rallied through tight quarters with a terrific 9.39 last 1/8. He can fire fresh and the two favorites, Chocolatito and Tequilla Sangria, are coming off hard races. Chocolatito dropped a nose photo in the PCQHRA Breeders Derby 15 nights ago and Tequilla Sangria scored a hard-fought nose win in her last Grade I distaff stakes win one month ago.

A former Cal State Northridge student was sentenced to eight years in state prison for sexually assaulting a woman on the school’s campus in January 2018, the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office announced Friday.

Davis Moreno-Jaime, 20, was convicted on one count of forcible rape in September after he was arrested in connection with multiple sexual assaults. Authorities said that they believed Moreno-Jaime attacked multiple victims between April 2017 and July 2018 throughout Southern California.

“This was not your stereotypical jumping-out-of-the-bushes type of thing,” CSUN Police Chief Anne Glavin said at the time, explaining that Moreno-Jaime knew the victims.

The District Attorney’s Office was unable to proceed with counts related to a second victim and dismissed them during a preliminary hearing. Misdemeanor counts related to a third victim were severed and are being prosecuted by the city attorney’s office, public information officer Ricardo Santiago said.

Those charges are related to an incident that occurred on July 4-5, 2018, said Santiago.

Moreno-Jaime, a business marketing major, was also a member of CSUN’s soccer team. On Friday, he was ordered to register as a sex offender for the rest of his life.

Punishment for rape in California typically results in a sentencing of up to eight years in prison. A sentence can increase if the crime involves a child victim, or two or more assailants.
