Will Rogers Downs Race 8 - Race 8 - Handicap
CLASSY EMPIRE (2) was comfortably accounted for when sixth last time out over 1710m at Oaklawn Park, beaten 20 lengths. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. The engagement of Weston Hamilton is noteworthy. Perfectly placed and is sure to make amends. QUARTERLY REPORT (5) has been a regular in the winners' stall of late including last start in dominant fashion over 1609m at this track (Dirt). Winning rider David Cabrera retains the mount. Meeting a tougher field but on current form he is one of the chief contenders. RED MOUNTAIN (4) finished third last time over 1609m at Sam Houston Park Turf (Turf), beaten 3.5 lengths. Placed to advantage so expect a forward showing. MOR LANA SPIRIT (7) improved last start to finish third over 1609m at Sam Houston Park. Nicely placed to maintain the form.
