Louisiana Downs Race 1

6 1/2F Stakes

Prize Money: $13,997

MY UNCLE LEON (1) turned in a nice run when fresh from a spell two starts back at this track then missed the placings last time when 31 lengths from the winner in fifth over 1673m at this track (Dirt). Fitter and well-placed to turn things around. CLASSIC WARRIOR (3) drifted well back and failed to finish it off last start when fifth, beaten 15 lengths, over 1408m at this track (Dirt). Ideally placed and is sure to take plenty of stopping. HELLO HOT ROD (4) has not won for a long while. Last raced on June 12 when beaten 5 lengths into fourth at Evangeline Downs (Dirt) over 1106m. Faces an easier assignment so he is a major player. HEARTTHROB HALO (2) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a fourth over 1207m at Evangeline Downs (Dirt). Has the class to produce a better result.
