Retama Park Race 12 - Race 12 - Allowance
APOLLITICAL LELO (7) is putting together some solid results. Finished second at Sam Houston Park (Dirt) two starts back then got the job done by one length as favourite last time out over 302m at this track (Dirt). Gilberto Linares scored on him last time and retains the ride. Finds a suitable race and can make it back-to-back successes. SIGHTSEEING BEAUTY (4) returned from a spell two weeks ago when she was beaten 3.5 lengths into eighth over 320m at this track. Strips fitter and can feature. IMA BIGG FLASH (1) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a seventh over 366m at this track (Dirt). Ali Rivera gets the best out of this three-year-old gelding. Tackling a deeper field this time but he is worth another chance. MR HOCKS (3) ran below expectations last start, finishing sixth and beaten 1.75 lengths at Sam Houston Park (Dirt) over 302m. Likely improver with top-three prospects.

Having second run back today. Last start ran last of 8 at this track on July 10 over 320m, 3.5 len behind Lil Kool Marge carrying 58kg at $70.10. At only start last preparation raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by a 0.3 len at Evangeline Downs October 17 over 274m defeating Runnning With Faith with 57kg at $3.80. Strips fitter and is an excellent winning chance.
