Hoosier Park Race 4

Race 4

Prize Money: $18,545

PONDA BUGATTI (2) produced another strong performance last start when he battled on bravely to just miss out over 1609m at this track. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Primary contender based on that latest outing. I'LL HAVE A DOUBLE (6) was successful last time out by 3 metres at this track over 1609m after an encouraging minor placing the start before. Leading hope in a similar race. TARZAN (1) comes right into contention after scoring last start by 7 metres at this track over 1609m. WINNING VIBES (5) has put the writing on the wall with a couple of seconds recently, the latest at this track over 1609m.

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind Paragon Magicway at this track over 1609m in a WO4-9CLCD on August 8 at $2.20. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4 m finishing third behind I'll Have A Double at this track over 1609m in a WO4-9CLCD on August 15 at $2.20. Capable of taking this out.

Didn't do much last start, 7th (Fr8) over 1609m at The Meadows, beaten 30 m by Momoni De Vie (1:54.00) in NW3500L4 on August 6 at $18. Before that 9th (Fr9) over 1609m at The Meadows, beaten 50 m by Best Met Yet (1:54.30) in NW4600L4 on July 22 at $9. Latest form makes this a pretty tough assignment.

Fair run when beaten by 6 m finishing second behind Paragon Magicway at this track over 1609m in a WO4-9CLCD on August 8 at $21. Then a handy effort when beaten by 3 m finishing second behind I'll Have A Double at this track over 1609m in a WO4-9CLCD on August 15 at $7. Genuine contender in this suitable contest.
