CHASING COYOTES (1) has accrued two minor placings from three runs this campaign. Continued the trend last time out when runner-up over 7f at this track (Dirt) after he was handy all the way. Tackling a more suitable race so he is going to be tough to beat. FLYING CAESAR (3) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 1.4 lengths when fifth in a 5f contest at Sam Houston Park three-and-a-half weeks ago after being in contention on the corner. Won't find this as tough so he is likely to play a big role. BABY OF THE FAMILY (5) turned in a good performance last time over 5f at Sam Houston Park (Turf), finishing 2.5 lengths from the winner in sixth after he was well back on straightening. In the money at each of his runs over this longer journey. Right in the mix. PAINTED LAD (4) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 6f at Sam Houston Park, beaten 8 lengths into fourth. Capable of featuring prominently.
