Lone Star Park Race 5 - Race 5 - Trials
EXPENSIVE TORO (5) won his maiden five starts back and is ready to salute again after a string of recent placings, the latest when second over 366m at this track (Dirt). Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Likely to feature. JMG SPECIAL DULCE (7) returned from a spell four weeks ago when she was beaten 3.5 lengths into sixth over 320m at this track. Finds a suitable assignment and can get the job done. MARVELOUS MARV (9) resumes after a break of ten weeks. Hoping for a repeat of his debut win over 302m at Sam Houston Park to kick off last prep. Likely to take beating. IM SIGNIFICANT (3) kicked off this prep with a win two weeks ago, scoring over 274m at this track. Senior rider aboard this time. One of the key contenders.

Recent form sound. Returns from a 41-day let-up. Most recently 2nd of 10 at this track on September 19 over 366m, nose behind Mister Carter with 56kg at $2.20. The run before that held ground to the line 2nd of 10 at The Albuquerque Downs Racetrack & Casino on August 8 over 402m, 1.0 len behind Think Twice Perry with 56kg at $1.90. Strong effort last time and looks a leading hope.
