Louisiana Downs Race 4 - 5 1/2F Stakes
MARY CLAIRE (5) brings the most reliable recent figures, with three placings at Fair Grounds including 3rd over 1106m two back and a narrow 3rd over 1207m prior; a repeat of those runs makes her the one to beat. Millie’s Deal (7) was 6th at Evangeline Downs over 1006m on debut after settling last and adds blinkers, which could sharpen her early. Vickie’s Halo (1) resumes after a wide 10th at Delta Downs over 1006m but has twice finished 4th here previously and draws the rail. JUBILATE (6) drops from Maiden Special Weight company after a tough 10th over 1207m at Evangeline Downs and can improve back in grade and trip.
