Evangeline Downs Race 9 - 5 1/2f Stakes

EL DAN (7) last appeared eight weeks ago over 1006m at this track when he finished fifth. This is his first run for the Gerard Perron stable. Key runner who will be tough to beat. STOVALL (2) improved sharply on his fourth two starts back at this track (Dirt) with a win over 1308m at this track (Dirt) five weeks ago, getting home by 1.3 lengths after being in the firing line on the bend. No reason he cannot salute again. U RASCAL U (1) finished sixth last start over 1609m at Evangeline Downs Turf (Turf) after racing on the pace for much of the way. One of the main contenders. JAMESY'S EMPIRE (3) improved sharply last time out to score by one length over 1006m at this track (Dirt) five weeks ago. Likely to be there at the finish again.
