Delta Downs Race 5 - 6 1/2F Stakes
RUNNING BAYOU (4) got a long way back when 13 lengths from the winner in seventh over 1006m at this track last start, a less impressive effort than his sixth at this track the run before. Has the ability to take care of this field. LONGNECK (2) finished 5.5 lengths away in fifth last time out over 1006m at this track after being in the firing line on the turn two weeks ago. Steps up in distance today. Drawn to enjoy a nice trail just off the pace. Best figures should see him run well. JAMESY'S EMPIRE (5) did a great job to score by 2.75 lengths over this course and distance last start to maintain his good form of late. Finds another suitable race and can figure in the finish. METALLIC MISCHIEF (6) was in contention on the turn and finished second last time over 1308m at this track (Dirt), beaten 4 lengths. Will trim down following recent racing. In the right race and is sure to be prominent.
