Emerald Downs Race 1 - Race 1 - Claiming

ROYAL HALO (3) settled well back last start and never threatened when 4.5 lengths from the winner in fifth over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Finds the right race this time and can get the job done. PISTOL POWER (4) returned to winning form second up last start, scoring by one length over 1609m at this track (Dirt). The third-up record is strong so he is among the winning hopes. TEX HANLEY (1) finished ninth when resuming two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1609m at this track, beaten only 0.3 lengths after being in the firing line on the bend. Meeting a deeper field this time but he is up to the challenge. BAK TO LIBERTY (5) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1609m at this track, beaten 3.5 lengths after being prominent at the turn. Strips fitter and can play a big role.
