BRILLIANT PLAN (5) wasn't far away on debut last start over 5f at Sam Houston Park Turf (Turf), finishing third and beaten half a length. Has upside and can open his account. SPECIAL AGENDA (1) is struggling to break through but has been around the mark lately, last start finishing second over 1m at Sam Houston Park (Dirt). Among the leading chances. HIDALGO (2) was safely held on debut last start, finishing 16 lengths behind the winner in eighth over 6f at Oaklawn Park (Dirt). Will take a lot from that experience. Shapes as one to consider. ESSENTIAL STORM (6) was beaten 15 lengths into sixth over 1m at Sam Houston Park four weeks ago. Better than recent efforts suggest.
