Evangeline Downs Race 9 - 5f Stakes

BIND FAITH (1) doesn't win out of turn, scoring just five times from 56 starts. Was again denied last start when he found a couple better over 1308m at this track. Nicely placed to play a major role. STORM SNIPER (3) didn't do a bad job after being prominent at the turn to finish 2 lengths away in second last start over 1006m at this track. That followed a first-up win at this track. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. MUD ON MY BOOTS (5) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1006m at this track, beaten 3 lengths into fourth. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. MAXIMUS FREEDOM (8) got the prize two runs ago but was not as effective last time out when sixth over 1106m at this track, beaten 7 lengths. Likely improver with top-three prospects.

Comes here off a 56-day let-up. Most recently ran second last of 7 at this track on June 12 over 1106m, 7 len behind Hawija with 55.5kg at $24.80. Before that won by 1.3 len at this track May 2 over 1006m defeating Distinctly Golden carrying 55.5kg at $5.80. Should be right in the finish.
