Louisiana Downs Race 8 - 1 1/2F Stakes
TITOS KINDA NIGHT (7) went close to shedding the maiden tag last time, sitting on the pace and kicking strongly to finish second over 320m at this track (Dirt). Looks close to breaking through. TARZAN BQUIK (3) returns from a layoff of three months. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 320m at Evangeline Downs. Looks a winning chance. BUILT FOR POWER (5) was lining up for just the second time last start when third over 402m at this track, beaten 0.8 lengths. Big chance to break through. FLYING SALTY COWGIRL (10) resumed two weeks ago over 402m at this track and was only beaten 0.9 lengths into fifth after being prominent at the turn. Fitter so a likely improver.

Raced twice to date. At big odds at debut, second last of 9 at this track on January 13 over 320m, 5 len behind Fdd Cupid carrying 57kg at $32. Second-up 3rd of 9 at this track on February 10 over 402m, 0.8 len behind F Dee carrying 57kg at $67.80. Well-placed and should prove hard to beat.
