On Saturday at Santa Anita, two-year-olds will take to the turf in the 20th running of the $75,000 Eddie Logan Stakes. Run at one mile on the turf course, the race has drawn a full field of thirteen colts and geldings with one additional listed as an also-eligible.

The morning line favorite in the wide-open affair is Daddy D T at odds of 7-2 for trainer John Sadler. Purchased for $250,000 as a yearling, the ridgling son of Scat Daddy broke his maiden against stakes company at Del Mar in September. From there, he went on to finish third in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf (G1) after an unsuccessful attempt on dirt. Corey Nakatani, aboard last time out, will remain in the irons and they will break from post position three.

Bolo making first start against stakes competition

Bolo has been tabbed as the second choice at 4-1 on the morning line for trainer Carla Gaines. A dark bay son of Temple City, he finished fifth in his career debut and came back to win in a front-running effort last time out to break his maiden at Del Mar. He has been training steadily since that effort at Santa Anita and will be making his stakes debut under jockey Mike Smith from post position eleven.

Broughton Kitten making first start for hot outfit

Also in the field at morning line odds of 6-1 is Broughton Kitten who will be making his first start for trainer Wesley Ward. Bred and owned by Ken and Sarah Ramsey, the chestnut son of Kitten’s Joy broke his maiden at first asking and has been on the board in his subsequent two starts against winners. Joe Talamo will be aboard for the first time and they will break from the outside post in the full field.
