Evangeline Downs Race 5 - 6F Stakes
HMS DIAMOND (4) missed the frame on debut then progressed nicely at his second outing, finishing 5 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 1207m at Fairgrounds. Perfectly placed and is sure to take plenty of stopping. LEE STREET (7) has been in the placings at his last two starts, finishing third last time over 1308m at Delta Downs (Dirt). Nicely placed to find winning ways. ONGOING CHALLENGE (13) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1609m at Delta Downs, beaten 3 lengths after being in the firing line on the corner. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. SOFT HANDS (2) ended up 8 lengths behind the winner in fourth on debut last start over 1207m at Fairgrounds (Dirt). Open to plenty of improvement. Anticipating a better performance.

Form hard to fault. Comes off a 50 day let-up. At the latest run 3rd of 8 at Delta Downs on February 19 over 1308m, 8 len behind Ninth Ward Bobby O carrying 55kg at $4. The run before that 3rd of 9 at Delta Downs on February 7 over 1308m, 0.6 len behind Big Woods with 55kg at $8.40. One of the prime contenders in a most suitable contest.

Racing well recently. Comes off a 62 day let-up. Last start 4th of 9 at Delta Downs on February 7 over 1308m, 4.5 len behind Big Woods carrying 55kg at $4.30. The race before that settled back and ran on when 4th of 7 at Fairgrounds on January 25 over 1207m, 8 len behind Bubby with 54.5kg at $22.50. Rates highly and is among the main hopes.
