Sam Houston Race 6 - Race 6 - Trials
This looks a sharp 365m trial with ANAS JULI ANN (3) the one to beat after leading and only nailed late when 2nd at Delta Downs over 320m by 0.1L last start, and she was also beaten a nose here over 274m in 2025. POLITICAL ASSASIN (8) brings reliable speed and recent Sam Houston form, last start 3rd over 320m beaten 0.5L after leading early, and was a Stakes runner-up at Lone Star over 320m in November. THIS EAGLES A LEADER (2) has solid credentials with a Lone Star 2nd over 302m by 0.5L and a recent Sam Houston 3rd over 274m, while JVM CARDI B (4) has winning speed at 201m and was a narrow Lone Star Allowance runner‑up before tougher recent runs. Leading chances: Anas Juli Ann (3), Political Assasin (8), This Eagles A Leader (2), Jvm Cardi B (4).
