Evangeline Downs Race 9 - 6F Stakes
MIRACLE ON CENTRAL (1) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1207m at Fairgrounds, beaten 4 lengths. Nicely placed to take this out. SHERKHAN (3) finished out of the money on debut two starts back then was beaten 14 lengths when fourth in a 1509m contest at Delta Downs two months ago after being in contention on the turn. Beautifully placed and is sure to give this a mighty shake. THE PETITIONER (12) has been in the placings at his last two starts, finishing second last time when he was handy all the way over 1006m at Delta Downs (Dirt). Perfectly placed and is sure to give this a mighty shake. CATALINA GOLD (4) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1308m at Delta Downs, beaten 11 lengths into fifth. Best efforts measure up so worth another chance.
