*ZICONIC MAIDEN, 2ND TIME ON TURF: This will be his 6th attempt. He was a well beaten second last time out on the turf, but he was closing at the end after a late start at the gate. John may have seen something about the way he was coming at the end that has led him to continue him on the turf. Here is the replay for his last try on the turf at a mile, and his race on Sunday looks to give him the extra distrance the last race indicated he might like. He looks like he knows what his job is in the last time out. Santa Anita Race 4 - Mar 19 - 1 mi Turf

FIRST LEG OF JAPANESE TRIPLE CROWN. Featuring Japan's most accomplished and promising 3 years olds, the race goes off at 2:40 a.m. ET Sunday morning (11:40 p.m. PT, Saturday). Because of the hour in the U.S., you might wish to catch the replay. Usually the English version is posted Monday, but the race replay can be found at the Japan racing site following the race.
"By far the most fascinating runner to be nominated, FAN DII NA, the FILLY by Deep Impact is unbeaten in three starts, and is coming off a five-length victory in the Grade 3 Flower Cup over 1,800 meters at Nakayama in March. The eye-catching filly is bidding to become the first filly to win the race since Hide Hikari in 1948."
