Will Rogers Downs Race 9 - Oqhra Fall Classic S. Stakes
EDBERG VERDE (4) has scored at his last three starts, most recently by 0.1 lengths over 366m in Group 3 class at Prairie Meadows (Dirt). That continued the good form this campaign, with three wins and two minor placings from six outings. Can measure up again. HES CROSS FIRING (6) is back from a spell of nine weeks and does go well when fresh, including a win to launch last campaign over 320m at Fair Meadows (Dirt). Has found a suitable race to kick off the campaign. LIGHTNIN STRIKES (8) finished second last time over 320m at this track (Dirt), beaten 2 lengths. Has started five times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Taking on a better line-up this time but he is good enough to play a major role. FLYING POLICY 123 (3) is struggling to break through but hasn't been far away, the latest effort a fifth, beaten 2.75 lengths, over 402m in Listed grade at this track (Dirt). Well placed in this easier race. Solid claims on her best form.

Comes off a 36 day let-up. At the latest run 6th of 9 at Lone Star Park on October 3 over 366m, 4 len behind Lil Perry Wagon with 58kg at $56.60. Before that ran last in a small field at Retama Park on August 6 over 796m, 11 len behind Dm Special Cat carrying 58kg at $22.10. Likely to find this a bit tough.
