Super Derby Superfecta Sunday

On this beautiful Superfecta Sunday we look in on a graded stakes race at that fabulous track down in Bossier City, Louisiana.

Louisiana Downs Race 11 {Super Derby~G3~1 1/16 mile~3 year-old~Graded Stakes}

A quality field of nine will go to the gate in this annual Graded Stakes race. There is sufficient speed to create a heated pace. Speed numbers are all fairly close making this race a highly competitive event. Our task is to stitch together a winning 10 CENT Superfecta ticket. It should be a great race.

#3 Lone Sailor (Graham / Amoss) is the class of the field and should be able to pull off the victory. He holds the second highest (tie) last out speed number at slightly longer route and two hearty workouts. This son of Majestic Warrior has competed at the highest levels this year and should take up a nice tracking position.

#8 High North (Geroux / B. Cox) should challenge with the highest last out speed number at a longer route and two stout workouts. He holds the highest speed number at this distance and is 57% in the money at the same. A son of Midnight Lute, he should be racing close to the pace. He is our Bronze Horseshoe selection.
$1 SHOW.

#1 Autumn Warrior (C. Hernandez / Stall) should be in contention from the start with a couple of very good last out speed numbers and two sound workouts. This guy will be seeking his fourth win in a row. A son of Orb, he has already won twice over the Louisiana Downs track.

#9 Lionite (Cabrera / Asmussen) should challenge sharing the second highest speed number at a longer route and putting in two superb peaking workouts. He is an impressive 66% in the money from nine career starts. A son of Quality Road, he has the tactical speed to position himself well for the stretch run.
