Delta Downs Race 5 - 1 1/2f Stakes
SPECIAL MACHO MAN (5) Didn't attack the line when 7th last run at the track. Should improve from the last run. Expected to fight out the finish. JESS SOME DASHER (7) Debutant 2yo by Jess Different for Danny Hoda. Respect the betting. NO DISCUSSION (4) Racing as a debutant 2yo by Heza Fast Dash for trainer Salvador G Flores. Jockey J R Ramirez Jr is a strong choice aboard. Watch for a sign in the market. BR EAGLE CARTEL (6) Lacked competitiveness when 6th last run around here. Giving another chance here and matched against a less competitive field. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. Suitably placed in this race.

Started at $53.00 and below par when 8th last time at the track but was a debutant last start. Likely to get back. Has the ideal draw. Entitled to be a big price.

Started at $14.00 and appeared lacklustre when 6th last time here but has a good draw. Might have to make up considerable ground. Prefer in a much weaker race.

Jumped at $18.00 and ordinary performance when 8th last run at Sam Houston but challenged by weaker competitors. Gets back and needs luck. Will struggle against these.

Was $4.50 and weakened to finish 7th last run here. Should improve from the last run. Arturo Alvarez and Jose Luis Sanchez Iii form a proven partnership. Tough competitor.

At $11.00 not in contention when 6th last run at the track. Giving another chance here and lining up against easier rivals. Will be positive in the run early. Expecting a strong showing.
