Evangeline Downs - Race #7 - Post: 8:13pm - Allowance - 7.0 furlongs on the Dirt. Purse: $31,000 Class Rating: 92

Rating:

#4 GIRL AFRAID (ML=6/1)
#3 FORGOTTEN FORTUNE (ML=5/2)
#2 RAIN (ML=15/1)


GIRL AFRAID - This thoroughbred has shown the ability to win on different racing tracks. Making the move from Fair Grounds for today's event, I have to believe she's ready to run. Any early speed horse that is starting from the inside has a shot on this track. Should jump out of the gate and get good position versus this bunch. The 87 latest race speed rating looks sound on paper. FORGOTTEN FORTUNE - Stokes was aboard this filly last time around the track and was impressed enough to take the horse right back. This filly is a gem of consistency, almost always in the top three. RAIN - Barrera should be able to place this mare right behind the leaders. Ideally, Barrera will rate behind the leaders, then pounce on the turn. You probably want to discount that last clash at Fair Grounds on the mud where she finished off the board. Should do well in this race without a sloppy track.

Vulnerable Contenders: #1 SWEET ALYSSA (ML=8/5), #7 IM SINGLED UP (ML=5/1),

SWEET ALYSSA - Tough to bet on any entrant to turn things around if there is no reward to taking the chance. This filly hasn't had any recent favorable outcomes in short distance contests. I find it hard to bet on her in this race. IM SINGLED UP - 5/1 is not pegged at the proper price for any horse in a sprint of 7 furlongs that hasn't finished in the money in a short distance event of late.
