By Steve Andersen Square Eddie broke the track record for 6 1-2 furlongs at Santa Anita with a frontrunning win in Friday's seventh race in 1:13.11. Making his first start since a sixth-place finish in the Grade 1 Malibu Stakes in December, 2009, Square Eddie set fractions of 21.47 and 43.47 seconds. He ran through the six-furlong mark in 1:06.81 and won by 3 1-4 lengths over Stacy's Hope. The previous record of 1:13.71 was set by Son of a Pistol in 1998.
