Evangeline Downs Race 3 - 7F HCap
MIDNIGHT PASSION (3) comes in with strong credentials, having won three of four starts and scoring last time at Evangeline Downs over 1207m. WHISPER ME A SMILE (5) is a key chance after a convincing win at Delta Downs over this trip, defeating Midnight Passion and LITEUPTHENITE (1), who also brings solid recent form including a last-start win at Sam Houston. WALKNTO NEWORLEANS (4) is another last-start winner, taking out an Allowance at Fair Grounds, while THRILL SEEKER (6) has finished runner-up in her last four runs, including two recent stakes placings. GRAND WINDFALL (2) was runner-up in a Fair Grounds maiden and steps up in grade. The race features several last-start winners and consistent performers, with Midnight Passion (3) and Whisper Me A Smile (5) looking the main hopes based on recent stakes form.
