\u00a0Here&#8217;s a look at the entrants:<\/p>\n<p><strong>1 \u00a0Dark Aguitar \u00a010\/1-<\/strong>Has only raced on this track during his career. \u00a0Had top-three finishes at tail end of 2014 and beginning of 2015 race seasons. \u00a0Form has gone down hill since topping 85 speed in listed stake race in March. \u00a0May need some rest and a poor outing here could further support that.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>2 \u00a0Glam Cam \u00a08\/5-<\/strong>Race co-favorite ran nice 93 speed in last going 9f. \u00a0Lost a bit of distance behind winner in stretch run but held for third. \u00a0Trims a hair in distance in this race but speeds are better than most in the field which gives this colt a shot to top spot.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>3 \u00a0Guitar Thief \u00a05\/1-<\/strong>This colt has finished in top two spots in 11 of 16 races and has never finished worse than second at Louisiana. \u00a0Able to run late and may be even better going longer. \u00a0In any event, sported 91 speed in last setting a career mark and could pull off an upset here.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>4 \u00a0Dark Ibury \u00a023\/1-<\/strong>Filly may find this field a bit tough. \u00a0Her best speed has been in mid-70 range and she&#8217;ll need to attach some rockets to blow past the faster runners in this field. \u00a0 Last two starts were listed stakes and allowance competing with the boys and she finished in back end in each race.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>5 \u00a0Dark Gripsley \u00a011\/1-<\/strong>Ran last two with Dark Ibury as stablemates in same allowance and stake race. \u00a0 Didn&#8217;t care for the longer stake race distance of 10f, finishing last but finished third in 6f allowance. \u00a0 Capable of running low 80&#8217;s and with a little racing luck, she could find a spot on the tote board.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>6 \u00a0Southen Brookline \u00a09\/1-<\/strong>Able to run on both dirt and grass, this filly has her sole win coming from a turf race last September. \u00a0She comes off a pair of seconds with one coming from each surface. \u00a0Speed of 85 in last on dirt was best of career and only time in 80-range. \u00a0She needs bring a little more heat to this race.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>7 \u00a0Best Stop \u00a08\/5-<\/strong>Race Sponsor Varsitytwo gets co-favorite in this field who has a record of 4-1-0 in six outings, all on the Louisiana \u00a0race track. \u00a0All races were on the dirt and this colt will be going on grass for first time. \u00a0Has 90+ speeds in three of last four and has some grass roots in breeding line.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Best Stop gets call here, should handle change in surfaces.<\/p>\n<p>Guitar Thief has been going well, could be the spoiler.<\/p>\n<p>Glam Cam tends to tire in stretch, still gets a piece.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Three ladies will take on four gentlemen in a Louisiana bred 8.f furlong race. \u00a0All seven are the age of<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":363,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_container_layout":"default_layout","colormag_page_sidebar_layout":"default_layout","footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-31058","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-previews"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31058","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/363"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=31058"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31058\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":31059,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31058\/revisions\/31059"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=31058"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=31058"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/btb.ehorseracing.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=31058"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
