RUNHAPPY D'ORO (1) had been rock-solid with two placings in a row before finishing fourth over 5f at this track last start. Has managed three minor placings from four runs at this circuit. Sure to go well. BASEBALL POLITICS (5) was impressive last time at this track (Dirt), scoring by 3 lengths over this trip. Top strike rate at the journey with five wins and seven placings from 12 starts and is among the leading chances. BERRY MISCHIEVOUS (2) is a distance specialist who was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 6f at Oaklawn Park, beaten 14 lengths into tenth. Finds an easier assignment and can turn things around. TWENTYONE N CHANGE (4) returns from a lay-off of 11 weeks and did score when resuming when last in work at Sam Houston Park (Turf) over 5f. Lines up for the first time for the Mark W Buehrer stable.
