Stilleto Boy wins Santa Anita Handicap for first Grade 1 victory

By City News Service

Stilleto Boy finished a neck ahead of Proxy to win Saturday's 86th running of the $500,000 Santa Anita Handicap, his first victory in a Grade 1 race on his ninth try. Stilleto Boy broke sharply from the No. 4 post and was a close fourth at the rail in the run to the far turn. Stilleto Boy was third entering the stretch, about two lengths behind favorite Defunded and a half-length behind Hopper, took the lead and held off a late charge from Proxy for the victory.

"I just wanted to let him run out front, but they shut me off and we had to settle back," Hall of Fame jockey Kent Desormeaux said after his third victory in Santa Anita's signature race for older horses. He also won on Best Pal in 1992 and Milwaukee Brew in 2002.

"He wasn't enjoying himself getting hit by dirt, so we moved out and he kept going. At the three and a half, I asked him for his best, but there was nowhere to go. Then at the two and a half, I asked him again and he made the drive. I was yelling at him and pushing him and he gave me everything. I didn't know until two jumps prior to the wire that we were going to get there."

In observance of Women's History Month, San Gabriel Valley Habitat for Humanity will launch the annual Women Build event on Friday and Saturday in Altadena, the organization announced.

Women Build provides opportunities to participate in homebuilding activities throughout March. Volunteers learn new skills, trade inspiration and help construct stronger, safer communities, according to SGV Habitat.

“The Women Build is an SGV Habitat tradition that honors the efforts being done to break down the barriers to homeownership that many women have faced,” SGV Habitat CEO Bryan Wong said in a statement. “We are proud to be expanding this event throughout the month of March this year, allowing even more volunteers to participate as we celebrate this movement that is empowering women and inspiring change.”

Women Build started in 1991 and has sought to bring "women and their allies together to raise funds, recruit their friends and build homes side-by-side with those in need of affordable housing," according to SGV Habitat. "Given these tools, women can create real change in their communities. To date, the Women Build event has helped house families in Glendale, Pasadena, Monterey Park, Baldwin Park, Monrovia, and throughout the San Gabriel Valley through volunteering, donations, and advocacy."

This year's Women Build event also commemorates the first SGV Habitat house being built in Altadena, according to an SGV Habitat statement. Last year over 100 volunteers helped build a couple of three-bedroom, two-bathroom homes in Pasadena that are now home to two families.

"The goal of Women Build is to celebrate women’s achievements, raise awareness against bias, and take action for equality while providing opportunities for hands-on learning," according to SGV Habitat. "While Women Build focuses on the inclusion of women in the work of building homes, the event does not exclude volunteers of any gender or gender identity."

Groups and individual volunteers can sign up to work on a Women Build shift at https://sgvhabitat. org/get-involved/volunteer/ — no building experience needed, but volunteers must be older than age 16.

Volunteers who lend a hand during the two-day opening weekend receive a Women Build tee-shirt and nail apron, breakfast and lunch, "along with the pride of raising walls and awareness of the challenges women face accessing safe, affordable housing," according SGV Habitat. "For those not comfortable swinging a hammer, there will be fictitious business name statement expires five years from the date it was filed in the office of the County Clerk. A new fictitious business name statement must be filed prior to that date. The filing of this statement does not of itself authorize the use in this state of a fictitious business name in violation of the rights of another under federal, state or common law (See Section 14400 et seq., Business and Professional Code).

'hospitality volunteer' opportunities as well, so everyone has a chance to get involved."

SGV Habitat also encourages people to donate in honor of an inspiring woman they know or admire. A donation helps the organization "continue the work of helping women, families and neighbors achieve their goals of homeownership and financial stability."

Funds raised support SGV Habitat’s three-year, $28 million Expanding the American Dream Campaign, which is now in its third and final year, according to the organization. Donations can be made online at https://sgvhabitat.org/getinvolved/womenbuild/.

Sponsors for this year's Women Build event are East West Bank, C.W. Driver Companies, Traveler’s Insurance, US Bank and predecessor Union Bank, Stanley Black & Decker, PFAR and Honeybee Robotics to support the event, according to SGV Habitat.

Businesses interested in becoming a sponsor of Women Build can find sponsorship information at https://sgvhabitat. org/wp-content/uploads/ sites/6/2023/01/WomenBuild2023.pdf.

Stilleto Boy, the 13-1 sixth choice in the field of nine older horses after being the 5-1 fourth choice on the morning line, paid $29.80, $11 and $4.40. Proxy, the 3-1 second choice who rallied wide from far back to place, a half-length ahead of Defunded, paid $4.60 and $2.60. Defunded, the 6-5 favorite, paid $2.40 to show. Hopper finished fourth, 1 1/2 lengths behind Defunded.

The $300,000 for the victory increased the 5-year-old gelding's career earnings to $1,711,675 in 21 starts, including four victories, four second-place finishes and eight third-place finishes.

Stilleto Boy was coming off a third-place finish in his last race, the $3 million Grade 1 Pegasus World Cup Invitational on Jan. 28 at Gulfstream Park in Hallandale Beach, Florida, finishing a head behind Defunded, who finished second, one length behind Art Collector.

"Defunded barely beat us that day, so I knew we could beat him because we had beaten him before," Stilleto Boy's trainer Ed Moger Jr.
