‘HER BOWS’ DRAWS BALANCED FIELD

Five talented older horses will meet this Saturday in the HER BOWS Bonanza at Louisiana Downs. 

Sim flashback– HER BOWS was a Cozzene x Rainbow Quest horse that accumulated close to a quarter of a million dollars over a fifty race career.

As for the field of runners:

PP1

blue eyed irish

Owner-

Hefbarn

Jockey-

RJ Rehberger

Odds

9/5

Carson City x Nureyev

 

BLUE EYED IRISH is a five year old horse that has won over half million in earnings.  He is hoping to return to the winner’s circle after a three race drought.  His preferred racing style is to be on or pressing the pace. 

 

PP2

gallant wings(gb)

Owner-

gboro

Jockey-

T Campy

Odds

7/2

In the Wings(GB)  x Key to the Mint

 

He is returns to the same track after an impressive allowance victory.  He is another runner that should be pressing the early pace.

 

PP3

SIP OF SAKI

Owner-

Bjbandit2

Jockey-

D Hogin

Odds

5/2

Sahkee x Forty Niner

 

His rally in the NC Mile (Gr.II) came up a bit short, but the trip was impressive enough to garner respect in this event.  One should expect him to be tucked in behind the early pace setters. The small field may be ideal for his top of the stretch move toward the front.

 

PP4

amazing canoe

Owner-

Tenpin6

Jockey-

F Oxon

Odds

9/2

Hyborean x Proctor

 

This nine year old is still lightly raced with only 27 career starts.  He ships in from Arkansas after a “staying close” in his last start.  He will probably be running a bit off the early group of runners, and would benefit from a battle up front.

 

PP5

a. P. Preacher

Owner-

Timmn

Jockey-

EN Thomas

Odds

7/2

A.P. Indy x Pulpit

 

A former stakes winner on the turf, he comes in with only four career starts on the grass.  He will most likely be running off the pace and will aim at passing some tiring runners the last quarter of mile. 

 

 

As the morning line odds indicate, this is a field with all the starters having reason to be optimistic about their chances.  The race has some runners that will seek out early positioning up front, and a couple of runners wanting to benefit from action on the lead.  BLUE EYED IRISH comes in with a hefty saving account, but I am looking at GALLANT WINGS (GB)  to put enough of a challenge to set the table for SIP OF SAKI to be there for a toast in the winner’s circle.

Selections:   SIP OF SAKI       BLUE EYED IRISH   A.P. PREACHER
