Sam Houston Race 10 - Race 10 - Allowance
UNCLE SHORTY (1) was last at the races when he finished second over 201m at Lone Star Park (Dirt) on November 7. One of the genuine hopes in the race. STOIC DASH (8) changes rider since being well held last time in sixth over 320m at Sunland Park (Dirt) on March 27. Better than the last run suggests. OMAC DONALD (3) last raced when successful by a nose over 201m at Lone Star Park (Dirt) six-and-a-half months ago. Has found a suitable race and is worth including. NIKOS (4) was too good for a maiden field when resuming last start over 402m at this track (Dirt), scoring by half a length. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Miguel R Vallejo was in the saddle on that occasion and retains the mount. Must be respected now that the penny has dropped.
