Evangeline Downs Race 9 - 7F Stakes
BLUE CHAIR BAY (2) finished in the placings when a half a length second over 1710m at Fairgrounds two back to keep his unblemished top-three record on dirt intact. Less effective last time on turf at Fairgrounds Turf over 1106m when out of the placings. Tough to beat back on the dirt. Worth another chance. NATHAN HENRY (1) is a three-start maiden who filled a minor placing at Delta Downs (Dirt) at the last run before spelling. Jockey Carlos Perez back aboard. Hard to beat if back in good order as anticipated. DIAL DONEGAL (7) is a four-year-old gelding on debut from the stable of Dane Noel. By Dialed In from Strike First. Respect any positive move in betting. MISSING BRIAN (9) was beaten 12 lengths into fourth over 1308m at Delta Downs at his latest appearance. Has his share of ability and is a top-three prospect.
