Fair Grounds Race 9 - Allen Black Cat Lacombe Memorial S. Stakes
AGGRESSIVE LIME (7) opened this prep last start with a fifth, beaten 8 lengths, over 1710m at Gulfstream Park Turf. Genuine type with two wins from four starts. Likely to feature. BOHEMIAN (1) is racing very well this campaign with two wins from six attempts. Won two starts back at this track (Turf) and went close again last time out. Among the leading chances. LOVELIEST (4) is a talented filly who tackled a tougher race at her last run on October 3 and finished eighth behind Imaginationthelady over 1710m in the G2 Jessamine Stakes at Keeneland Turf (Turf). Well placed and looks a key runner. INDIGO WOODS (6) has not been produced since she scored on debut over 1710m at Churchill Downs Turf on October 26. Ticks all the right boxes.

Last start ran on from midfield and won by a 0.3 len at this track February 13 over 1710m defeating Killa Sally with 54.5kg at $4.70. The run before that 3rd of 12 at this track on January 18 over 1710m, 0.4 len behind Faithful Departed with 54.5kg at $6.30. Might just find this a bit too tough.

Resumes from a spell after only one run when came from midfield and won by 1.75 len at Churchill Downs Turf October 26 over 1710m defeating Island Girl with 54kg at $14.91. Will take a lot from this run but stays under notice.

Second-up. First-up after three months 5th of 10 at Gulfstream Park Turf in LR on January 31 over 1710m, 8 len behind Sister Troienne with 54.5kg at $7.30. Previously second-up 6th of 11 at Keeneland Turf in the G2 Jessamine Stakes on October 3 over 1710m, 2 len behind Imaginationthelady with 53.5kg at $6.57. Even fitter and is an excellent winning chance.

Recent form sound. Comes off a 35 day let-up. Most recently won by 3.5 len at this track January 31 over 1710m defeating Dagmara with 54.5kg at $5. The run before that 3rd of 9 at this track on January 3 over 1710m, 4.5 len behind Alone Time carrying 54.5kg at $10.40. Broke maiden status last time and is worthy of consideration.
