Louisiana Downs Race 7 - 7 1/2f Stakes
INCREASE (7) is close to a win after a string of minor placings, the latest when third over 1106m at Prairie Meadows (Dirt) when she was always up in the leading division. Ideally placed and is sure to be there at the finish. TENSAS UNION GIRL (2) faced the starter for the first time last start and was just fair in finishing fifth at Evangeline Downs (Dirt) over 905m, beaten 8 lengths. Has upside and deserves another chance. ALOHA TRACY (5) ran a better race last time at her second career start when second over 1408m at Remington Park (Dirt). Has further upside and looks ready to break through. QUEEN'S GUITAR (8) is a two-year-old filly on debut from the stable of Jonas Gibson. By Star Guitar from Queenanne'srevenge. Watch the market closely.
