Louisiana Downs Race 8 - 1 1/2F HCap
MC BLUE CARTEL (9) was in control from the outset to score as favourite on debut over 274m at this track (Dirt) three weeks ago. Likely improver who should run well again. AWESOME EAGLE V (8) led all the way to score on debut over 274m at this track (Dirt) three weeks ago. Promising type who can measure up again. PURPLE N GOLD BLOOD (1) was strongly fancied on debut last start and did a fair job to finish 0.3 lengths from the winner in second over 274m at this track. Likely improver so another top-three finish is on the cards. SHARPEST IMAGE (6) raced handy on debut last start and gave a good sight, holding on for second and beaten 0.3 lengths over 274m at this track (Dirt). Improver worth including.
