TAKE THIS CITY (7) turned in a good effort when narrowly defeated last time at Sam Houston Park (Dirt) over 6f. Expected to go well. TEXAS HUNK (5) could only manage eighth on dirt over 6½f at Sam Houston Park in a then couldn't find the top-three on turf over 5f at Sam Houston Park Turf more recently. Hard to fault if at his best. Big chance to atone. E Z WORDS (2) is yet to break through after eight starts but not far off a win. Placed in a then missed the frame but was thereabouts last time over 6f at Sam Houston Park (Dirt). Has a strong finish. Has ability and expected to feature. RED DIRT ALLEY (3) raced on the speed last time and fought on well to finish third over 6f at Sam Houston Park (Dirt). Will drift back but wind up late. Must be respected.
