Evangeline Downs Race 3 - Race 3 - Mdn Claiming
FAMOUS SPIRIT (3) returns after ten weeks in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a eighth over 320m at Sandy Ridge (Dirt). Has ability and sure to prove tough to beat. LIL KOOL CRICKET (1) missed the frame when resuming last start over 274m at this track (Dirt) but wasn't all that far from the winner. Expected to feature in the finish. ANNIES CORONA (5) missed the placings first up recently but was not too far from the winner when fourth over 320m at this track (Dirt). Should park just off the speed. Winning claims on best figures. HES KINDA SWEET (2) finished out of the money on debut two starts back then he was always well out of his ground and was beaten 2.5 lengths when fifth over 320m at this track two-and-a-half weeks ago. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways.
