Louisiana Downs Race 1 - 7 1/2f Stakes
BACK STREET BABY (3) finished third when resuming two runs back at this track (Turf) then progressed nicely last time out to score by 2 lengths over 1609m at this track (Turf). Rey Williams scored on her last time and retains the ride. Nicely placed to give this a mighty shake. CHICKA CHICK (2) could only manage seventh two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1673m at Louisiana Downs, beaten only 0.3 lengths after being in the firing line on the turn. Meets a stronger field but she is up to the task. CLASSIC EMBRACE (6) has switched yards since finishing second two months ago over 1509m at this track. Sure to make her presence felt. CLEARLY BELLA (7) did a great job to score by 1.5 lengths over this course and distance last start in a far better run. Taking on a better field but she is good enough to cope.
