Murderously difficult sequence awaits intrepid P6 players at Hollywood Wednesday with likely $1,200,000+ pool as bait. Three quirky maiden affairs, 2 headscratching claiming events and the rescheduled Hermosa Beach marathon comprise the sextet, and while some potential singles appear employable, nothing resembles a layover.
