Lone Star Park Race 8 - Race 8 - Allowance Optional Claiming
HEAVENVILLE (6) is racing well this time in work, including a last start win over 1609m at Sam Houston Park (Dirt) to bring up four wins from seven runs in the campaign. Form at this distance is strong with four wins from seven starts and is expected to be in the finish. GIGANTE (3) improved sharply on his fourth two starts back at Sam Houston Park Turf (Turf) with success as public elect over 1710m at Sam Houston Park Turf (Turf) four weeks ago, getting home by 1.75 lengths after being prominent at the turn. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. CLOVISCONNECTION (4) was well fancied last start over 1308m in Listed grade at Sunray Park (Dirt) when third, beaten 6 lengths. Will find this much easier. Certainly one to consider. HOLIDAY PAY (5) proved too strong two runs ago but couldn't follow that up last time out when fourth over 1609m at Sunland Park, beaten 6 lengths. Well placed and can make amends.

Racing well recently. Returns from a 49-day let-up. Last start 4th in a small field at Sunland Park on March 15 over 1609m, 6 len behind Bender with 56kg at $2.30. The start before that favourite; ran on from midfield and won by 1.3 len at Sunland Park LR February 9 over 1609m defeating Cornishman with 56kg at $5.60. Can do a lot better than that last run.

On a three run winning streak. Comes here off a 36-day let-up. At the latest run scored a big 4 len win at Sam Houston Park March 28 over 1609m defeating Dimatic carrying 56kg at $2.10. The start before that scored a big 9 len win at Sam Houston Park February 27 over 1710m defeating Turn North carrying 56kg at $3.80. Well placed. Should prove hard to beat.
