Sam Houston Race 8 - Race 8 - Maiden
EMERGENZ (5) appeals as the leading chance after finishing 4th at Sam Houston over 302m last start, beaten just 1.1L in a Futurity Trial. LIL FERRARI WAGON (8) was 6th in the same set of trials, 2L from the winner, and looks next best. CHICAGO STONE (6) and A FLASH OF PAINT (3) both finished well back in their recent runs and need to improve.
