Evangeline Downs Race 3 - 6F Stakes
BUNTUS FOCLORA (7) appeals as the one to beat dropping to 6f after a Churchill Downs 1408m Maiden Claiming 90 3rd, having also placed 3rd in a Keeneland 1308m Maiden Special Weight prior. POLAR WOLF (2) maps as a key chance back to 1207m after a 4th at Oaklawn over this trip, beaten 3.1L. SOCIAL CLIMBER (1) has two Oaklawn 1207m thirds this prep and can improve from the inside draw. PRINT MORE MONEY (4) was 5th on debut at Evangeline over 1006m and can progress up in trip.

Second-up after 36 days, with blinkers on. Last start 5th of 8 after settling back at Evangeline Downs over 1006m on 23 Apr, beaten 10.5L in Maiden Claiming 68 with 55kg.

Has been around the mark with 3rds at Churchill Downs over 1408m on 10 May (beaten 5.9L, 53.5kg) and Keeneland over 1308m on 4 Apr. Also placed at Aqueduct over 1207m on 4 Jan, so the drop back 201m is fine. Blinkers on and drops 1kg to 52.5kg from barrier 7 under Jamison Mudd for Dane Noel. Consistent placegetter with each-way claims.
