Evangeline Downs Race 4

1M Stakes

Stake: $32,108

NORTH OF BALI (6) is usually thereabouts but finds it hard to win, with only one victory from 14 starts. Again tasted defeat last start when fourth over 1408m at this track, beaten 7 lengths. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run. HIGHSTAKES HUSTLER (1) has been freshened up since a disappointing fifth over 1609m at this track (Dirt) six weeks ago. Capable of a lot more. BIG NICKEL (7) hit the frame two starts ago at this track but ran below par last time when eighth and beaten 6 lengths over 1609m at this track (Turf). Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. MOHAYMEN HOLIDAY (4) is ticking along okay with two runs this time in. Improved last time out when second, beaten 0.3 lengths, at this track (Turf) over 1609m. Should enjoy a good run just off the speed. Must be respected.
