Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 5

Mdn Special Weight

Prize Money: $63,164

QUICK SILLA (7) faced the starter for the first time and finished sixth last start at Churchill Downs (Dirt) over 1106m, beaten 8 lengths. Better for the run and can improve sharply. DARROWBY (10) missed the frame on debut then progressed nicely at his second outing, finishing 6 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 1006m at this track. Looks well placed so expect another big run. TAKE CHARGE BEACH (4) was out of the money on debut two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1106m at Churchill Downs, beaten 10 lengths into eighth. Ideally placed and is sure to take a ton of beating. POPCORN (9) is a well bred two-year-old gelding lining up for the first time. By Catholic Boy from Zia who has produced her share of winners. A product of the strong juvenile stable of Jonathan Thomas. Sure to be competitive despite a tricky gate.

At debut, ran second last in a small field at Churchill Downs on June 5 over 1006m, 8 len behind Sweet Mary with 54kg at $9.25. Fair effort on debut but may need more racing.

Lining up for just third start. At long odds at debut, ran second last of 9 at Churchill Downs on May 14 over 1006m, 17 len behind Captain Luke carrying 54kg at $30.90. Second-up raced behind the speed prior to fading 8th of 11 at Churchill Downs on June 4 over 1106m, 10 len behind How's Al Today carrying 54kg at $63.26. Cannot be taken lightly.

Having third race start. At debut, 5th of 7 at Horseshoe Indianapolis on May 26 over 1006m, 15 len behind Hes Steelin Mylady carrying 54kg at $12.90. Last start made ground from midfield; 2nd of 7 at this track on June 13 over 1006m, 6 len behind Mr Gerson carrying 54.5kg at $19.60. Key chance likely to give a big sight.
