Edge to stalking types on Cushion Track. The lone turf race carded was won by an off the pace type.

Joel Rosario and Joe Talamo both booted home a pair.

Serra Song got the job done by a head as the even money fav in the feature race for the profitable Espinoza/Mandella team. Lucky Honey (Bejarano/Mitchell) ran too good to lose while well clear of the rest. Friday (12-12-08) Hollywood Park preview

(1) Bright Moon (5-1) - Freshened late runner is 0-5 here.

(2) Sweetsinginanita (15-1) - Failed miserably in last six.

(3) Mark Set Go (5-2) - Versatile mare drops back in for a tag for Mike Mitchell.

(4) Aunt Pink (7-2) - Daughter of Unusual Heat a disappointing 1-22.

(5) Blanche Sweet (4-1) - Baffert handles the dropping late runner now.

(6) Forest Miss (2-1) - Stalk and pounce filly reunites with Bejarano.
