Hoosier Park Race 1

Race 1

Prize Money: $12,213

BUNDORAN N (3) won at this track two runs ago but couldn't repeat the dose at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 9 metres. Has the benefit of a good draw. Meets a comparable field and he can get the job done. BLUEBIRD ZANTRAX (6) was responsible for a very good effort last time over 1609m at this track, finishing second and just 0.8 metres from the winner. Leading hope based on that recent effort. AMERICANFIREWATER (4) resumes. Last appeared when a modest eighth over 1609m at this track four months ago. REAL COOL COLE (2) is close to a win after two successive placings, the latest a third over 1609m at this track.

Solid run when a close second behind Straightsierrablue at this track over 1609m in a NW1000L4 on September 16 at $2.60. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4 m finishing third behind Fox Valley Jasper at this track over 1609m in a 10000 CL on September 24 at $3.90. Nicely placed to take this out.

Last start solid effort when 2nd (Fr1) over 1609m at this track, beaten 9 m by Packedwithluck (1:49.40) in 10000 CL on September 18 at $3.60. Two runs back posted a big 9 m win as favourite (Fr6) at this track (1:53.10) beating Sure Thing Herman in NW1000L4 on September 9 at $2.40. One of the key runners.

Resuming after a spell of four months. Finished off last campaign when well beaten into eighth behind Dreamfair Arnie B at this track over 1609m in a CLHDC10/15 on June 12 at $11.30. Will give a good account.

Didn't do much last time out, 5th (Fr6) over 1609m at this track, beaten 21 m by Fox Valley Jasper (1:52.00) in 10000 CL on September 24 at $9.60. Before that 4th (Fr2) over 1609m at this track beaten 25 m by Packedwithluck (1:49.40) in 10000 CL on September 18 at $33.60. This appears outside his grasp.

Two back was well beaten into third behind Packedwithluck at this track over 1609m in a 10000 CL on September 18 at $5.40. Then a handy effort when a close second behind Fox Valley Jasper at this track over 1609m in a 10000 CL on September 24 at $1.80. Genuine contender in this suitable contest.
