Fair Grounds Race 6 - Race 6 - Allowance Optional Claiming
GEAUX SUGAR (4) has two wins and two minor placings from four starts this campaign. Found one better last start at Listed level at Delta Downs (Dirt) over 1006m after being racing in the leading division. Has the ability to figure prominently. NINE PART (3) is a promising galloper who resumes from a break. Last raced when second over 1207m at Louisiana Downs (Dirt) nine months ago which was the only run of that prep. Has an impressive first-up record including two victories. Change of jockey to Jose Ortiz who has a strong record when aboard, including three wins. Sure to run well. CARPIS (1) scored a first up win then tackled stakes grade and finished fourth last start over 1207m in stakes class at Fairgrounds (Dirt). Down in grade this time. Among the leading players on his best figures. CLEAR AS A BELE (2) finished third when resuming two runs back at Fairgrounds (Dirt) then progressed nicely last time out to score by a nose over 1207m at Fairgrounds (Dirt). Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race.

Recent form sound. Most recently sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 9 at Delta Downs in LR on February 7 over 1006m, 1.3 len behind Strong Promise carrying 56kg at $2.40. The run before that favourite; won by 1.5 len at Fairgrounds LR December 13 over 1207m defeating El Dinero with 56kg at $3. Has the right credentials.

Gelding back from a spell of nine weeks. Has placed previously first up from a break. Finished off last campaign third of 9 at this track December 18 over 1106m, 3 len behind Petcoff with 53kg at $6.50. When resuming last campaign third of 8 at Colonial Downs Turf July 19 over 1106m, 3 len behind Esperon with 55.5kg at $3.90. Look for a bold run.

Last start ran last of 9 at Delta Downs in LR on February 7 over 1006m, 17 len behind Strong Promise carrying 54kg at $60.60. Before that 3rd in a small field at Delta Downs on January 7 over 1006m, 7 len behind Tussling Charlie carrying 54.5kg at $6.30. Hard to make a winning case.
