ABSAROKA (3) was in a different class last time with a dominant all-the-way win by 6 lengths at Sam Houston Park (Dirt) over 7f. Good record at this journey with three wins and five minor placings from 11 starts and is a leading contender. CATHOLIC GUILT (4) is yet to find the winners' list this time in work but has three placings from five starts this prep, finishing 1.3 lengths away in second most recently over 1m1/4f at Sam Houston Park. Well placed to make a big impression. TOTAL SURPRISE (2) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 7 lengths when fourth over 1m1/2f at Sam Houston Park six weeks ago after being prominent at the turn. Tackling a more suitable race this time so he will be hard to beat. JOHAN ZOFFANI (10) finished 8 lengths from the winner in eighth on turf at Sam Houston Park two starts back. Missed the frame in another run on turf last time at Sam Houston Park over 1m1f when 7 lengths adrift in tenth. Worth including back to this surface.
