CC VALIANT (9) missed the placings two starts back then ran a better race when he worked home well and finished 0. 7 lengths away in fifth last time out over 1f at this track. Ideally placed and is sure to take a ton of beating. LADIES CRUZ HIGHER (4) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1f at this track, beaten only 0. 3 lengths after being in the firing line on the corner. Won't find this as tough so she is all set to build on that latest effort. PREY N CORONA (10) improved sharply on his fourth two starts back at Evangeline Downs (Dirt) with a win over 1f180yards at this track (Dirt) two months ago, getting home by half a length after being prominent at the corner. Finds a suitable race and can build on that solid recent effort. SHINY COWGIRL (7) is a promising galloper who resumes from a break. Last raced when third over 1½f at Evangeline Downs (Dirt) five months ago. Has never been out of the placings when resuming from two tries. Record at this journey is impressive with two wins and three placings from six runs and must be respected.
