Hoosier Park Race 13

Race 13

Prize Money: $9,770

GREAT PRETENDER (2) showed plenty of fight to score last start over 1609m at this track, getting home by just 0.8 metres. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Perfectly placed and is sure to be there at the finish again. SAILOR SAM (3) ran fifth last start at this track over 1609m, beaten 30 metres. Has ability and should be right in the finish. MARSHALL MALONE (7) can break his way into the winner's list after registering a sequence of three top-three finishes, the latest at this track three weeks ago. BOLD ERA (4) is in the mix if he can recapture the form from two starts back that saw him score over 1609m at this track. Something for the Multiples: BIG LAW (5)

Last start was well beaten into fifth behind Er Rocky at this track over 1609m in a TMR 78 on October 21 at $9.10. Raced better the start before that with a solid effort when 2nd (Fr5) over 1609m at this track, beaten 9 m by Seven Hundred (1:53.30) in TMR 75 on October 15 at $3.20. Well placed, should prove hard to beat.

Failed to impress last start; 6th (Fr8) over 1609m at this track beaten 35 m by War No More (1:51.10) in TMR 75 on October 22 at $29. Showed ability the outing before when he won by a 0.9 m as favourite (Fr1) at this track (1:53.40) beating Tellme U R Mydate in TMR 75 on October 8 at $2.80. Hard to leave out.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 4.5 m second behind Fox Valley Onassis at this track over 1609m TMR 75 last start. Before that was beaten 2.25 metres third again at this track same class on October 1. Racing well and worth each-way consideration.
