MALIBU S S (11) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start when he settled well back over 7f at Sam Houston Park, beaten 5 lengths into fifth. Perfectly placed and is sure to prove tough to beat. BOBBY BRINKLEY (6) was thereabouts last time out when second over 5½f at Sam Houston Park (Dirt) after he was up on the pace all the way. The extra journey should play into his hands. Among the leading chances. CINCO RICHIE (10) held on well to finish third last time out over 1m at this track (Turf) after leading for much of the way. Among the main hopes. RED MOUNTAIN (1) finished third last time over 7½f at Fairgrounds Turf (Turf) when resuming from a lay-off, beaten 3 lengths. Ideally placed and is sure to play a major role.
