Louisiana Downs Race 2 - 1F Stakes
TS NEPHELE (6) is back from a spell of nine weeks. Closed last campaign with a minor placing over 201m at Evangeline Downs (Dirt). Has ability and should be right in the finish. THUMPPER (3) was in contention on the turn and ran a better race last start to finish a close third over 229m at Evangeline Downs after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Has the talent to produce another positive result. LA PANTERA JP (10) is a 20-start maiden who finished fifth, beaten 0.7 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 229m at Evangeline Downs (Dirt). Bold showing expected with added fitness this time. JEES CHEYIA (5) is back from a spell of four months. Turned in a fair effort at Lone Star Park (Dirt) over 229m at her only run last prep, finishing eighth and beaten 2.5 lengths. Has switched to the Don R Poteet stable over the break. Comes here with definite top-three claims.
