Evangeline Downs Race 3

7F Hcap

Stake: $61,502

JOVIE G (3) closed last campaign with three consecutive minor placings and is back today after a break of nine weeks. Reunites with Jose Andres Guerrero which is a proven winning combination. Likely to feature. WABASH (4) broke his maiden last start over 1308m at Delta Downs (Dirt), scoring by a nose. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Re-unites with J Melancon who was on board last start. No reason he cannot get the job done again. LIKEN IT (2) scored a commanding win at Listed level at Fairgrounds (Dirt) over 1609m at his latest appearance on December 13. Has to be respected. HEZA ROYAL CAT (5) is back from a break of nine weeks. Raced below par at his only appearance last prep when sixth over 1408m in stakes class at Delta Downs (Dirt). Can make his presence felt while fresh.
