Louisiana Downs Race 2 - 1M 1/2F Stakes

PATH TO SUCCESS (7) was last at the races when he finished seventh over 1509m at Delta Downs (Dirt) on February 5. Yet to be beaten here, scoring three wins from as many starts. Looks a winning chance. BLAZING SABER (1) made it back-to-back wins when successful last start over 1408m at this track (Dirt), getting home by half a length. Nicely placed to give this a mighty shake. SPECIAL DISPATCH (3) finished 11 lengths from the winner in fourth last start over 1609m at Evangeline Downs, an improvement on his eighth at Evangeline Downs the run before. Will enjoy a drop in class so he is likely to play a big role. SMOOTHDINI (2) last appeared a week-and-a-half ago over 1609m at Evangeline Downs when he finished tenth. This is his first run for the Randy Jr Degeyter stable. Comes here with definite top-three claims.
