Evangeline Downs Race 8 - 6 1/2F Stakes
DREWVICTORY (6) broke through for his maiden win over 1207m at this track (Dirt) last time, scoring comfortably. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Shaping up nicely and he is sure to go well. INDIAN CAT (1) finished second when resuming from a spell last start over 1207m at this track. Looms large. MOTOR CITY (2) returns from a layoff of three-and-a-half months. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1006m at Delta Downs. Definite top-three chance. LICK SKILLET (3) saluted two runs ago then turned in a nice run last time out when fourth over 1207m at this track, beaten 2.25 lengths. Well placed and can make amends.
