Evangeline Downs Race 4 - 5f Stakes
BAR CAR (3) ran well on debut last start to finish third over 905m at this track (Dirt) in a tougher race. Promising type with improvement to come so she will be hard to beat. COPPER KEY (1) faced the starter for the first time and finished fifth last start at this track (Dirt) over 905m, beaten 4 lengths. Should progress this time and is expected to feature. EXCUSEMELADY'S (7) gave away a big start at the top of the straight last start and finished 6 lengths from the winner in fourth over 1006m at this track (Dirt). Looks to be in the right race to play a big role. GREY STRAT (6) turned in a moderate debut over 905m at this track (Dirt) on June 20 when she was safely held in eighth, 12 lengths from the winner. Open to plenty of improvement. No surprise to see her improve sharply.
