Louisiana Downs Race 3 - 6f Stakes
HAVEMERCIONUS (1) returned last time with a solid second at this track (Dirt) over 1207m after being in contention on the bend. Likely improver with strong prospects. KISSES FOR COOPER (6) is a 22-start maiden who finished sixth at her most recent outing over 1408m at Evangeline Downs (Dirt) after she gave away a big start. This looks a nice race so expect her to be right in the finish. BULLETPROOF BESS (3) is facing the starter for the first time. By Thousand Words and is out of the Tony J Richey stable. Respect any positive move in betting. ARTIC SAILOR (4) is back after a break of four months. At the last run before the layoff she finished fourth over 1308m at Delta Downs (Dirt). Nicely placed and can figure in the finish.
