Race Tip
LOYAL TO THE CHIEF (8) is back at the races for the first time since March 13. Scored over 6f at Fairgrounds to launch the last campaign. Rates highly and should take some beating. CECE WAVE (5) bounced back last start and got the job done by 2.75 lengths after being in the firing line on the corner over 6f at Louisiana Downs (Dirt). Likely to be there at the finish again. BLESS D'SOUTH (3) finished third at Fairgrounds two runs back but didn't measure up last time over 5½f at this track (Dirt), finishing 13 lengths back in seventh. Likely improver with strong prospects. JUST A WIN (4) didn't make an impact at her last run before going for a lay-off on February 21 finishing sixth and beaten 9 lengths over 5f at Delta Downs (Dirt). Definite top-three chance.
