Fair Grounds Race 8 - Race 8 - Allowance Optional Claiming

HIGGINS BOAT (5) scored last start by 0.1 lengths at this track (Turf) over 1710m. Has a strong record this course, scoring at three of five starts. Sure to be there at the business end. CHASING LIBERTY (9) is back from a spell of six-and-a-half months. Turned in a fair effort in the G1 Franklin-Simpson Stakes at Kentucky (Turf) over 1308m at his only run last prep, finishing fifth and beaten 2.5 lengths. Should settle just off the speed despite the draw. Expected to be in the finish. NEAT (3) has not appeared since he finished tenth over 1609m in the G1 Fourstardave Handicap at Saratoga Inner Turf (Turf) on August 2. Has found a suitable race and is worth including. POINT PROVEN (6) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1811m at this track, beaten 6 lengths into seventh. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.

Resumes after a break of five-and-a-half months and has been in the money when fresh before. Finished off last preparation when last of 10 at Keeneland Turf in the G2 Sycamore Stakes October 10 over 2414m, 50 len behind Desvio with 55.5kg at $9.36. Previously first up; fifth of 9 at Churchill Downs Turf in the LR June 14 over 2213m, 3.5 len behind Rebel Red carrying 53.5kg at $39.05. Excellent chance.
