Louisiana Downs Race 2 - 7F Stakes
CLEARLY COLOSSAL (2) rates on top after a pair of recent placings, most recently 3rd at Louisiana Downs over 7f, beaten 5.5L, and 3rd prior at Evangeline over a mile when on speed. DIXIE STRONG (6) is a key chance off a close-up 4th here over 7f last start and a prior 4th at Evangeline over a mile; he also owns minor placings at shorter trips. RUNNER RUNNER (4) brings recent sprint speed and was 3rd at Evangeline over 5f, 2.5L off the winner, and could be prominent stretching out. CODE OF PARAPLUIE (1) has a February Fair Grounds mile 2nd on his card and draws the rail for a class drop into this claiming grade.
