Sam Houston Race 8 - Race 8 - Mdn
FEATURE RIME (6) has changed stables since finishing second over 320m at Sunland Park (Dirt) ten weeks ago. Goes well when resuming from a spell, including two minor placings from four starts. Very hard to beat. DOCS MAGIC CARD (1) was unwanted in betting on debut last start but ran a strong race, finishing second and beaten 0.3 lengths over 366m at this track (Dirt). Sure to improve and can get off the mark this time. RVS CANDY SIN TACHA (5) raced on the speed from the outset when resuming last start and finished second, beaten 0.3 lengths, over 402m at this track (Dirt). Nicely placed to take this out. LIL BABY D (7) wasn't far away on debut last start over 366m at this track (Dirt), finishing third and beaten 0.6 lengths. Has ability and worth including.
