Evangeline Downs Race 2 - 6 1/2F Stakes
PRETTY FAST (5) turned in a fine effort to score by 5 lengths at today's track and distance when resuming from a break last start. Goes up a rung or two but he is good enough to figure in the finish. SAND STREET (7) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago at Fairgrounds. Safely held last time out when seventh over 1308m at this track, beaten 4.5 lengths. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. LUNI SIMA (6) has switched yards since scoring by 0.8 lengths at this track over 1408m on April 18. Worth plenty of thought. IRON IN THE FIRE (1) registered a strong win two runs ago then turned in a decent effort last time out when fourth over 1308m at this track, beaten 2.75 lengths. Expect a better run this time.

Recent form sound. At the latest run 4th of 12 at this track on April 9 over 1308m, 2.75 len behind Begforforgiveness with 54kg at $9.40. The run before that won by 1.3 len at Fairgrounds March 15 over 1207m defeating Speightful One with 55kg at $8.20. Sure to be about the money.

Last start 7th of 12 at this track on April 9 over 1308m, 4.5 len behind Begforforgiveness carrying 55.5kg at $2.50. The start before that favourite; scored a big 3 len win at Fairgrounds March 20 over 1207m defeating Our Pact carrying 56kg at $1.50. Capable of a better run.
