6 8-12

He has won three times at 1m. Third of 10 behind Legendary Lore beaten 4 1/2l at 22-1 on his latest outing at Sam Houston Race Park over 1m last month. A threat to all.

6 8-12

He has won four times from 5f to 7f. Finished 4l behind Tx Code when fourth of 7 at 13-2 on his latest outing at Sam Houston Race Park over 6f last month. Possibly the strongest option given he drops in class for his return to this trip.

Robertino Diodoro

Winner of five races from 6f to 1m. Finished 4 1/2l behind Gentle Soul when fourth of 10 at 17-4 on his latest outing at Fair Grounds over 1m (good) in January. Has a decent strike-rate elsewhere and is another to bear in mind.

5 8-12

He has won four times from 5f to 1m. Third of 11 behind Barefoot Samurai beaten 5l at 19-2 on his latest outing at Sam Houston Race Park over 7f earlier this month. Holding his form well and should not be underestimated.

4 8-12

He has won three times from 5f to 1m. Finished 5l behind Tx Code when fifth of 7 at 30-1 on his latest outing at Sam Houston Race Park over 6f last month. Will need to be revived by taking a drop back down in class.
