Sam Houston Race 9 - Race 9 - Trials
FEENIX (1) is a talented filly who tackled tougher grade last time, finishing 4.5 lengths behind Whoopie Cowgirl over 274m in Group 2 grade at Louisiana Downs (Dirt). Can play a big role in this company. FLYING HAULIN COWBOY (9) is a two-year-old colt who is having his first run for the Jose Ivan Martinez stable. Finished off last campaign with a sixth at Louisiana Downs (Dirt) 11 weeks ago. Not seen at the trials but is in a nice race. Among the leading chances. IVORY ALLURE (8) showed good early speed last start on debut and fought on well to hold second, beaten 3 lengths, over 302m at this track (Dirt). Improver with a solid top-three chance. MADAME SECRETARI (3) started at big odds on debut last start when fourth, beaten 3 lengths, over 302m at this track (Dirt). Has upside and worth including.
