Richard Mandella trainee Crown of Thorns won the Robert B Lewis Stakes at Santa Anita Park on Saturday. Coast Guard, trained by David Hofmans, filled out the Exacta for $8.10. Indian Sun was third for trainer Dan Hendricks in the small field of five. Meal Penalty--whatever the heck that means--grabbed the lead quickly, only to be beaten for third or fourth in the final furlong. See, even he couldn't stand to hear the name "Meal Penalty" anymore.
