Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 7

Starter Optional Claiming

Prize Money: $52,889

TAKEITANDRUN (12) led throughout last time over 1609m at Horseshoe Indianapolis (Dirt) and scored a comfortable win. Likely to set the tempo again here and expected to go very well. CANYON STREAK (4) scored at his most recent appearance, getting home by 1.75 lengths over 1609m at this track (Turf). That continued the good form this campaign, with three wins and two minor placings from six starts. Big chance once again. GAME POINT (5) built on a nice third two starts back at Ellis Park Turf (Turf) with a win as public elect over 1609m at Belterra Park Turf (Turf) three weeks ago, getting home by 4 lengths. Dylan Silva Machado scored on him last time and retains the mount. Must raise the bar but another win is not out of the question. STOLEN POWER (1) got home by 2.75 lengths on dirt at Belterra Park two starts ago. Disappointed in another run on dirt last time at Horseshoe Indianapolis over 1609m when 4 lengths from the winner in fourth. Looks a definite top-three contnder again. Something for the Multiples: GREAT SWORD (10) SHURE (7)

Last start 6th of 10 at this track on August 22 over 1609m, 8 len behind Canyon Streak carrying 55.5kg at $5.40. The run before that tried to lead throughout but was claimed late 2nd of 8 at this track on July 30 over 1609m, 0.3 len behind Chicory Blaze carrying 55.5kg at $2.90. Can do a lot better than that last run.

Form hard to fault. Last start ran on from midfield and won by 1.75 len at this track on August 22 over 1609m defeating Elevated Game with 55.5kg at $4.70. The race before that sat on the pace when 3rd of 9 at this track on August 6 over 1710m, 1.0 len behind Free Advice with 56kg at $5. Big chance to make it back-to-back successes.
