GOTTA KEEP HIM (2) went fast early over 1m1/2f at this track (Turf) last time and defied all challengers to score by 1.3 lengths. Meets a stronger field but he is worth serious consideration. MAX IS G MONEY (1) got the prize two runs ago at Evangeline Downs. Couldn't follow that up last time out when fourth over 1m at Evangeline Downs, beaten 6 lengths. Faces an easier assignment so he can play a big role. SILVER TONE (5) was having his first run on a turf track last start when victorious over this course and distance, scoring by 0.3 lengths. Looked right at home on turf latest and rates a strong each-way chance again. CARTHAGE CAJUN (6) registered a strong win two runs ago then turned in a decent effort last time out when third over 1m at Evangeline Downs, beaten 2.5 lengths. Worth another chance.
