Hodges Photography / Lou Hodges Jr. Touchuponastar will start next in the $150,000 Premier Night Championship on Feb. 7 at Delta Downs.
The connections of Touchuponastar, the standout Louisiana-bred, passed on the Pegasus World Cup and will focus instead on the $150,000 Premier Night Championship on Feb. 7 at Delta Downs.
Touchuponastar has won that race three years in a row, and the last two years moved on to contest the New Orleans Classic at Fair Grounds, which he won last March. But hands-on owner Jake Delhomme this week did not commit to a schedule beyond the Delta start next month.
