Delta Downs Race 8 - Race 8 - Mdn Special Weight
CASSY CASSY (2) returned last time with a solid third at this track (Dirt) over 1006m. Nicely placed to go a couple better. SELL THE BUFFALO (7) resumes from a spell of four-and-a-half months. Could only manage to finish ninth at the latest run over 1609m at Evangeline Downs Turf (Turf). Commenced last prep with a minor placing at Evangeline Downs over 1408m. Rates highly and is a strong chance to break through. SWEET KANTHA (3) returns after five-and-a-half months in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a sixth over 1006m at Evangeline Downs (Dirt). Rates highly and is a chance to break through. ZARLANA (1) was prominent at the turn and finished third last time over 1408m at this track (Dirt) when resuming from a spell, beaten 8 lengths. Will trim down second-up. In the right race and is sure to be prominent.
