Lone Star Park Race 12 - Steve Sexton Mile S. Stakes
TOUCHUPONASTAR (2) added to his impressive record with a win over 1811m in the G2 New Orleans Classic Stakes at Fairgrounds (Dirt) at his last appearance before a break nine weeks ago. Goes very well when fresh from a spell with three wins from five starts so he is sure to prove tough to beat. KOMOREBINO OMOIDE (5) was in the firing line on the corner and finished 1.3 lengths away from the winner in third last start in Listed grade at Fonner Park (Dirt) over 1710m Has a very good record over today's journey with four wins from six starts. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Will prove tough to beat. PUBLISHER (7) had been in top form scoring three wins on end prior to missing the frame last time out in the G2 Oaklawn Handicap at Oaklawn Park (Dirt). Coming back in journey today. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Sure to be competitive. NEOEQUOS (3) raced on the pace when resuming last start and lifted strongly to hold third, beaten 1.5 lengths, over today's journey in the G3 Oaklawn Mile Stakes at Oaklawn Park (Dirt). This is an easier assignment and can take this out.

Most recently 2nd in a small field at this track on May 3 over 1609m, 2.25 len behind Gigante with 56kg at $1.90. The start before that scored a big 4 len win at Sam Houston Park March 28 over 1609m defeating Dimatic carrying 56kg at $2.10. Racing okay but look elsewhere.

Form hard to fault. Comes here off a 30-day let-up. Most recently held ground to the line 3rd of 8 at Fonner Park in LR on April 25 over 1710m, 1.3 len behind Cornishman with 56.5kg at $1.80. The start before that ran last in a small field at Colonial Downs in LR on March 14 over 1609m, 13 len behind Tour Player carrying 56kg at $3.30. Working up to a win. Worth following.

At the latest run 4th in a small field at Oaklawn Park in the G2 Oaklawn Handicap on April 18 over 1811m, 11 len behind White Abarrio with 53.5kg at $15.30. The start before that won by 1.5 len at Oaklawn Park LR March 28 over 1710m defeating Echo Again with 56kg at $2.60. Can do much better.
