Lone Star Park Race 4 - Race 4 - Allowance
POLITICAL ASSASIN (9) doesn't boast the best winning strike rate but ran a nice race last time out, finishing second and beaten only 0.1 lengths over 320m at this track (Dirt) after being prominent at the corner. Finds a suitable race and can find the winner's circle. WHAT THE FOG (2) pushed forward last time and boxed on to finish a nose away in second over 274m at this track (Dirt). Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. MIDNIGHT D (5) produced a reasonable effort when fourth last start over 274m at this track, beaten 0.9 lengths. That followed a win at this track the start prior. The engagement of Francisco Giles is noteworthy. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time. FAITH OF FIRE (7) will strip fitter for this after running below expectations first-up at this track (Dirt), finishing sixth and beaten 1.75 lengths over 274m. Deserves another chance.

The run before that sat on the pace when 3rd of 8 at this track on September 26 over 274m, 0.4 len behind Snazzee with 57kg at $8.60. Strong effort last time and looks a leading hope.

Second-up. Comes off a 36-day let-up. First-up after five months came from midfield and won by 0.5 len at this track on October 8 over 274m defeating Phaith carrying 57kg at $2.30. Previously second-up 2nd of 9 at Sam Houston Park on May 8 over 320m, nose behind Dayquiri carrying 56.5kg at $6.60. This is tougher so prefer others.
