Fair Grounds Race 12 - Twinspires.com Louisiana Derby Stakes

GOLDEN TEMPO (5) Made considerable ground when 3rd last start here and solid career start. Possesses very good closing speed. Been in the money 3 from 3 attempts this campaign. Up to these. BLACKSMITH (7) Made no mistakes when winning by a margin of 3 3/4L last time at Santa Anita and good career start. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Can win. EASTERLY (8) Rocketed home when winning last run at Gulfstream Park. Should muster plenty of early toe. Jockey Edgard J Zayas and trainer Brad H Cox are consistently competitive together. Worth strong consideration. EMERGING MARKET (9) Romped home to win last start at Tampa Bay Downs and having second career run. Flavien Prat is a smart booking. Can measure up to this company.

Picked up late to win last run at Sunland Park and drawn beautifully. Showing great form since resuming from a break and demonstrating upward trajectory in recent races. Marginal chance.

Was a comprehensive winner by 5 3/4L last time at Gulfstream Park and has a good draw. Looking sharp on the track this preparation. Respect the betting.

Felt the pinch late when 2nd beaten by 1/2L last time around here and promising career start. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. Can't leave out of your calculations.

Showed a good turn of foot when 3rd beaten by 6L last start at this venue and honest performer putting a tidy record together. Matched against a stronger field. Definite claims for punters.

Started at $43.00 and average at best when 9th last run at Oaklawn Park but dropping in class. Likely to settle back in the field. Would be more keen on the chance of others.
