Louisiana Downs Race 1 - 7 1/2F Stakes
GOODMORNING GRACIE (4) was popular in betting last time out but after being in contention on the turn disappointed in finishing fourth over 1609m at this track (Turf), beaten 4 lengths. Finds a suitable assignment this time and is a great chance to break through. OLDFASHLOVESONG (6) returned from a spell a month ago when she was beaten 35 lengths into ninth over 1609m at Evangeline Downs. Enjoys a drop in grade so she can play a big role. GO NORTH BOSS (3) missed the placings two starts back then ran a better race and finished 4.5 lengths away in fourth last time out over 1609m at Evangeline Downs. This doesn't look as hard so she is a major player. ANNALA (2) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1609m at Evangeline Downs Turf, beaten 12 lengths into eighth. No surprise to see her in contention.

Second-up. First-up after three months second last of 10 at Evangeline Downs on May 1 over 1609m, 35 len behind Bronze Legacy carrying 55kg at $6.70. Previously second-up 4th of 11 at Remington Park Turf on October 31 over 1509m, 11 len behind Faye's Gold with 53.5kg at $9.50. Improvement likely and looks a big chance.
