Delta Downs Race 3 - 1 1/2F Stakes
FIRE MCQUEEN (3) appeals as the leading chance after placing 3rd at Louisiana Downs over 302m last start, beaten 1.8L, and finishing 2nd at the same track and trip prior. COMPARAME (9) is a key danger, coming off a 3rd at Louisiana Downs over 302m and a close 2nd at this distance two starts back. JRS SHEZ MAJESTIC (6) also warrants respect after a last-start 2nd at Louisiana Downs over 201m, beaten 0.8L. KREAUX ON ICE (2) was 4th at Louisiana Downs last time, beaten 1.9L, and has placed at this level. HEZA HIGHER FIRE (5) has a recent 2nd at Evangeline Downs over 320m and can be included among the chances.
