Louisiana Downs Race 4

6f Stakes

Prize Money: $9,986

IRISH WHISKEY (1) will strip fitter for this after running below expectations first-up at Evangeline Downs (Dirt), finishing ninth and beaten 25 lengths over 1106m. Won't find this as tough so he is sure to be prominent. AY AY RON (2) finished fourth on debut two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1207m at this track, beaten 3 lengths after being prominent at the corner. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. HANK RIDGE (7) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 6 lengths when fourth over 1609m at Louisiana Downs Turf two weeks ago. Has the ability to figure prominently. MISKA MUSKA (8) had good support on debut but ran below expectations when fourth over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Expected to improve sharply and worth including this line-up.
