Delta Downs Race 5 - Race 5 - Mdn Claiming
UTHINKSHECANRUN (7) was strongly fancied on debut last start and did a fair job to finish 8 lengths from the winner in third over 1106m at Louisiana Downs. Will benefit from that experience so she will prove tough to beat. DEUCE 'N A QUARTER (2) faced the starter for the first time and finished seventh last start at Evangeline Downs Turf (Turf) over 1006m, beaten 10 lengths. Will improve and looks well placed. CAIRO'S CHIC (5) produced a fair effort on debut last time out when 9 lengths from the winner in sixth at Evangeline Downs Turf (Turf) over 1006m. Shapes as one to consider. OLYMPIAD'S CHOICE (4) is facing the starter for the first time. By Olympiad and hails from the George Leonard Iii stable. Watch the market closely.

Two-year-old filly (Olympiad - Critic's Choice) making her debut. Nice profile and a bold showing is on the cards.

Was well-supported at debut, 3rd in a small field at Louisiana Downs on September 23 over 1106m, 8 len behind Make Him Wait with 55.5kg at $2. Probable improver with bright prospects.
