Louisiana Downs Race 5 - 5 1/2f Hcap
RUNNINGONCLOUDNINE (3) Put a gap on the rest when winning by a margin of 4 1/4L last time at this venue but up against a more competitive field. Right in this. PASTINACA (7) Charged home to win last start at Evangeline Downs but competing at a higher grade. Shows good early pace. Has run into the placings all attempts this campaign. Looks to be value. GOLFITO (9) Reeled them in when winning last run at Evangeline Downs. Looks very sharp this campaign with 2 wins from as many starts. Worth consideration. ARMY RUNNING BAYOU (4) Came in 4th last time at Evangeline Downs. Likely to bounce back. Should be going forward early. Timothy Thornton rates highly. Honest enough to be an each way player.

Was very impressive when winning by a margin of 4 1/4L last time at this track but challenged by more formidable competitors. Likely to be well placed early. Chance and can measure up.
