Evangeline Downs Race 1 - 1M Stakes
STRUCK OUT (10) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1509m at this track, beaten 2.25 lengths after being in the firing line on the turn. Looks well placed so expect another big run. EL CHAVO (5) has been in the betting recently but has failed to live up to market expectations. Most recently finished fifth over 1609m at Lone Star Park Turf (Turf), beaten 8 lengths. Capable enough so worth another chance. JUST NATE (3) has not appeared since he finished fifth over 1609m at Delta Downs (Dirt) on February 12. Looks a strong top-three prospect. BROCK'S BOY (1) is a 10-start maiden who looks close to breaking the duck after finishing in the placings at his last couple of runs, most recently when 8 lengths away in second over 1408m at Evangeline Downs. Well placed to run a big race.

Form hard to fault. Comes off a 35 day let-up. Most recently sat on speed throughout when 2nd of 7 at Evangeline Downs on April 18 over 1408m, 8 len behind Coboch carrying 55kg at $3.10. The run before that 2nd of 11 at Evangeline Downs on April 3 over 1207m, 0.5 len behind Clearly Stardom with 55kg at $7.10. Worth thought from inside alley.

Lining up for just third start. At very big odds at debut, 8th of 10 at Evangeline Downs on April 10 over 1408m, 24 len behind Tickle Me Unclemo carrying 55kg at $66. Last start ran last in a small field at Evangeline Downs on May 1 over 1006m, 14 len behind Jungle Law carrying 55kg at $42.50. This looks too tough.

Comes off a 42 day let-up. Last start came from midfield; 2nd of 8 at this track on April 11 over 1509m, 2.25 len behind Got Stripes with 52.5kg at $15.60. The race before that second last of 9 at Fairgrounds on February 16 over 1710m, 20 len behind Midnight Vengeance carrying 53kg at $15.50. Rates highly. Big chance.
