September 26th Louisiana Downs Recap
Fast track and back on the turf…yes! Edge to early-pressing types on main. Turf seemed to play fair.
Hat trick for leading rider Don Simington. Rico Flores and Ramsey Zimmerman both booted home a pair. Jerry Cart saddled two winners on the day.
Brian House is 40% with debut maiden claimers, and he struck again in the 8th with Neverknocknoclass ($23.20). Bet down longshot play of the day Popcorn Secret was a non-threatening 8th in the same race.
Got one top home on Saturday. Best bet Ivor’s Empire (9th race) finished a flat 4th at 7-2.
They're off and running at Louisiana Downs!
September 27th Louisiana Downs Recap
Weather: Sunny. High 92.
Sunday’s 9-race card features a pair of grass races and includes a Pick 6 carryover of $4,080 . Dry conditions are expected through October 1st, and we are back on the weeds!.
Friendly Patriot is my best bet in the 3rd race. Raced wide last time, and Lara is 34% with this type of dropper.
Ready Charm is my longshot play of the day in the 5th. I am expecting a wire job attempt after a pair of disappointing efforts to kick off his career.
