Louisiana Downs Race 7 - 1m Stakes
IONA MCKINZIE (7) Grabbed towards the finish when 2nd beaten by 1 3/4L last start at this track. Should muster plenty of early toe. Worth consideration. AUTHENTIC KITTEN (8) Right in contention last start at Lone Star Park. Has the early speed to burn across from the wide alley. Well placed and has solid claims. ARANSAS PASS (5) Mediocre attempt when 4th last run at this venue. Must be considered. IN SPEIGHT OF ZOOM (4) Outgunned at the finish when 3rd beaten by 3 3/4L last run at Fanduel Sportsbook And Horse Racing and going over extra ground. Serious player.

Started at $11.00 and crept into 4th last run at the track and fitter for debut run. Has the ideal draw. Tough ask.

Started $6.50 and didn't threaten when 5th last start at the track but has a positive draw. Expecting to settle positively. Unplaced in all races to date. Can't have today.

Resuming after a spell. Odds of $23.00 and disappointing effort when 7th last start at Lone Star Park. Likely to get back in the run. Couldn't have in this.

Odds of $8.00 and weakened under pressure when 7th last time at this venue. Jockey Lane J Luzzi and trainer Jayde J Gelner have enjoyed a lot of success together. Can't leave out of your calculations.

Displayed a strong effort throughout the race when 2nd last start here. Has plenty of early speed. Definite claims for punters.

Just shy of the win last start at Lone Star Park. The wide alley shouldn't be a problem with plenty of early speed. Expecting a solid performance.

Managed to place 3rd beaten by 3L last time at this venue but hoping that the added weight won't hurt. Watch the betting.

Started $28.00 and edged past some when finishing 4th last run at Lone Star Park. Change in trainer. Will be a tough ask.
