Lone Star Park Race 2 - Race 2 - Claiming
RIO ROJO RANCHERO (5) is struggling to break through but hasn't been far away, the latest effort a fourth beaten 1.3 lengths over 274m at Gillespie County Fairground (Dirt). Going well without winning and gets his chance to break through. JESS ISLA (3) is a four-year-old entire who is having his first run for the Kerry Ellis yard. Resumes after filling a minor placing at his latest outing 11 weeks ago at Fair Meadows (Dirt). Not seen at the trials but looks well placed. Definite winning chance. TEX HEX BRUJA (1) returns after a spell of 12 weeks. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 402m at Louisiana Downs. Comes here with definite top-three claims. Something for the Multiples: THE LINDSEY POUR (9)
