Emerald Downs Race 4 - Race 4 - Starter Allowance

ROYAL HALO (1) improved sharply on his fourth two starts back at this track (Dirt) with a win as public elect over 1207m at this track (Dirt) a week-and-a-half ago, getting home by 0.8 lengths after being in the firing line on the bend. No reason he cannot salute again. HAPPY DOES (6) started at $2.50 last time but could only manage fifth, beaten 3 lengths, at this track over 1609m. Should camp just off the leaders. Among the leading chances. MASHHAD FLATS (2) finished second last time over 1609m at this track (Dirt), beaten 2.25 lengths. This is an easier assignment and can get the job done. ORTH (4) ran below expectations last start, finishing seventh and beaten 18 lengths at this track (Dirt) over 1609m. Deserves another chance.
