Evangeline Downs Race 5 - 7 1/2F Stakes
MOONIE PIE (2) appeals off a strong 2nd here over 1509m last start, closing from the back and beaten 1.3L, and her prior Fair Grounds sprint 2nd fits well. TREASURE ME (3) is a last-start winner at Evangeline over 1207m, leading throughout and should measure up with a light weight. TORTUGA COAST (7) bolted in by 5.5L over this trip here and is a key chance up from maiden claiming. GENTLY (5) has competitive Oaklawn allowance form despite finishing 6th last time and can improve back to Louisiana. SAYYOULOVEMEBABY (1) resumes after a Delta Downs maiden win and maps to be prominent from the inside draw.
