GEAUX SUGAR (4) has two wins and two minor placings from four starts this campaign. Found one better last start at Listed level at Delta Downs (Dirt) over 5f after being racing in the leading division. Has the ability to figure prominently. NINE PART (3) is a promising galloper who resumes from a break. Last raced when second over 6f at Louisiana Downs (Dirt) nine months ago which was the only run of that prep. Has an impressive when resuming record including two victories. Change of jockey to Jose Ortiz who has a strong record when aboard, including three wins. Sure to run well. CARPIS (1) scored a when resuming win then tackled stakes grade and finished fourth last start over 6f in stakes class at Fairgrounds (Dirt). Down in grade this time. Among the leading players on his best figures. CLEAR AS A BELE (2) finished third when resuming two runs back at Fairgrounds (Dirt) then progressed nicely last time out to score by a nose over 6f at Fairgrounds (Dirt). Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race.
