Louisiana Downs Race 7 - 5f Stakes
SHINOVAR (12) showed good speed last time out and fought on well when second over 1408m at Louisiana Downs (Dirt). Will be handy despite the tricky draw. Should be in the finish again. MAJESTIC MOON (9) is back after a break of four months. Went close to a maiden win before the layoff, finishing second at her latest appearance over 1207m at Sam Houston Park (Dirt). Has ability and is a solid chance. IMATEXASBEAUTY (3) started at $6.40 last time and ran below expectations, finishing sixth and beaten 8 lengths at Lone Star Park Turf (Turf) over 1509m. Beautifully placed and is sure to play a major role. LIL BIT FORGOTTEN (6) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1006m at this track, beaten 6 lengths into sixth. No surprise to see her in contention.
