Before BOWMAN, WOLLMAN, and MORRIS SHEPPARD ARNOLD, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM.

1
Larry G. Race appeals the district court's1 denial of his 28 U.S.C. Sec. 2254 petition.  We agree with the district court that Race has not raised an independent constitutional violation and, absent one, his claim of actual innocence based on newly discovered evidence cannot form the basis for habeas relief.  See Herrera v. Collins, 113 S. Ct. 853, 860 (1993);  see also Schlup v. Delo, 63 U.S.L.W. 4089 (U.S. Jan. 23, 1995).  Therefore, we affirm without further discussion.  See 8th Cir.  R. 47B.
