Lone Star Park Race 9 - Race 9 - Mdn Claiming
RR CHROME (8) turned in a sound effort last time but found a couple better at Retama Park (Dirt) over 229m, beaten one length. Yet to break through this time in but hasn't been far away, with three placings to his name. Best form puts him right in this. RIO SHACARRI (2) is an three start maiden who raced on speed last time and faded to finish fifth at Retama Park (Dirt). Not far away last time and rates well on best. Gets chance to break through. JH APOLITICAL (4) is a three-start maiden who finished fifth, beaten 1.75 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 302m at Retama Park (Dirt). Definite top-three hope with plenty of improvement to come. THAT A POOL DEAL (1) was in the firing line on the bend and finished second last start over 229m at Retama Park (Dirt), beaten half a length. Fitter for that run. Suitably placed so anticipating another strong effort.
