Lone Star Park Race 4 - Race 4 - Claiming

BENDER (3) met with solid support last time out but could only manage to finish seventh over 1811m in Listed grade at Sunray Park (Dirt) in a disappointing performance. Ideally placed and is sure to play a pivotal role. BATTLE STRIKE (1) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start when he was always well out of his ground over 1609m at this track, beaten 7 lengths into fifth. Worth noting F Wethey Jr goes aboard. Finds an easier assignment and can find winning form. SCHIFTY'S HALOID (5) settled well back last start and never threatened when eighth over 1609m at this track (Dirt) five weeks ago. Better than last start and can feature. JOLLY SAMURAI (2) has been in the placings his past two starts, finishing second over 1609m at this track (Dirt) last time out. Has a decent record at this track with three minor placings from four runs. Cannot be underestimated.
