Delta Downs Race 6 - Race 6 - Allowance Optional Claiming
HIGHLAND CREEK (5) was well supported when resuming last time out over 1408m at this track (Dirt) and proved too strong, scoring by half a length. Open to plenty of improvement and he looks hard to stop again. CAUSEWAY BENNY (3) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1408m at this track, beaten 2.5 lengths into fifth after being in the firing line on the turn. Going up a level this time but he is good enough to play a major role. MOONLIGHT MAX (2) raced on the pace over 1308m at this track (Dirt) last time and went on to win by 0.1 lengths. Has been in solid form this campaign with two wins to his name. Expected to be competitive. MOGUMBEAUX (9) resumed over 1509m at this track (Dirt) last start and was too good for his rivals, scoring by 0.3 lengths. Will be better for that latest run and is worth following up.

Last start raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 5th of 9 at this track on October 23 over 1408m, 2.5 len behind Funnyflame with 52kg at $10.40. The race before that sat on the pace before fading 7th of 10 in Listed grade at Louisiana Downs Turf at Louisiana Downs Turf on September 19 over 1710m, 6 len behind Star Rock Star carrying 55kg at $19.80. Nice effort last time. Can go on with the job now.

Comes here off a 52-day let-up. Last start won by a nose at Louisiana Downs on September 16 over 1408m defeating Fiesty Fist with 56kg at $3.20. The race before that 3rd of 8 at Louisiana Downs on September 7 over 1673m, 2.25 len behind Island Cabana carrying 56kg at $1.80. Doesn't look good enough to threaten the top few.

At the latest run ran last of 8 in stakes class at this track at this track on October 10 over 1408m, 32 len behind Touchuponastar carrying 53.5kg at $70.30. The run before that scored a big 3.5 len win at Louisiana Downs Turf on September 16 over 1509m defeating Beach Blanket carrying 53.5kg at $4.30. Rather invest elsewhere.
