Evangeline Downs Race 2 - 5F Stakes
SONO (4) started at $4.90 last time and ran below expectations, finishing fifth and beaten 4.5 lengths at this track (Dirt) over 1308m. Tackling a more suitable race this time so he is one of the main contenders. DOUBLE EDGE SWORD (3) was well in commission last time but ran below expectations when fourth and beaten 7 lengths over 1006m at this track (Dirt). T Pompell who has scored on him three times retains the mount. Expecting a bold showing. PRINCE LANCELOT (8) hit the frame two starts ago at Fairgrounds but ran below par last time when seventh and beaten 14 lengths over 1609m at this track (Turf). Beautifully placed and is sure to play a pivotal role. LAGOON (10) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1106m at this track, beaten 2.5 lengths. Fitter this time will prove harder to beat.
