Louisiana Downs Today – Oct 1st

September 27th Louisiana Downs Recap

Fast and firm conditions on Sunday. Main track played fair, and stalkers held the edge on the turf.

Sidney Lejeune Jr. and Ramsey Zimmerman both booted home a pair.

Wildrally won again over the local green and will be sad to see this meet end.

Got a pair of tops home including best bet Friendly Patriot ($5.40).

And down the stretch they come!

October 1st Preview

Weather: Isolated Thunderstorms (30% chance). High 85.

Thursday’s 9-race card features a pair of grass races and includes a Pick 6 carryover of $4,481.

Touch of Iron (6th race) is my best bet on the card. He makes his 3rd start off a layoff and has run well in both turf outings this year.

Sequoia King (7th race) is my longshot play of the day. Tamo Tiger is clearly the one to beat, but Sequoia King raced wide last time and should improve 2nd off the shelf with Torres in the irons.

Note that my Oct 1st analysis is complete and posted here. Just click on the Thursday Selections and the pdf file will open.
