September 25th Louisiana Downs Recap
Fast track and off the turf on Friday. Four wire jobs on the drying out track.
Hat trick for Dustin Dugas and Jose Riquelme. Morris Nicks saddled two winners on the day as he tries to run down leading trainer Jerry Cart.
Only got one top home on a very competitive Friday card. Late Pick 4 paid on three winners, as did the Pick 6. Best bet He Dances Backward missed by a 1/2 length at almost 5-1. Longshot play of the day Colter Stone made a run but flattened out at around 8-1.

Jose Riquelme booted home a pair once again.
My best bet Miss Lewis is most effective as a stalker, but she got caught up dueling along the rail and weakened to 5th.  My longshot play of the day Mary Catherine ($7.60) was live on the board and won nicely 2nd time out.
Both of my track program horses to watch (Messy Marvin, Mary Catherine) got the job done. Messy Marvin won despite his race being …read more

July 17th Louisiana Downs Recap
Good main track and off the turf following overnight storms. Upgraded to fast by race 3. Fair track the last two racedays gave way to a card dominated by early-pressing types.
Jose Riquelme booted home a trio of price horses, including a pair with trainer Jerry Cart . Automatically makes Riquelme/Cart a profitable combo to watch. Leading rider Don Simington is the money rider for Cart, so Riquelme aboard means a few more value points.
As mentioned above, prominent throughout types did well on Friday, and horses compromised by the bias included my best bet A …read more
