Hoosier Park Race 5 - Race 5
TELL ME IM SPECIAL (5) appeals as the leading chance, coming off a close 2nd at Hoosier last start and showing consistent recent form. BET ON THE JET (6) resumes after a spell but placed two runs back and has shown some promise. MIDNIGHT LACE (4) returns first-up and has a solid record of minor placings, while ADDY UP EFFORT (3) has been midfield in both career starts. The race looks best suited to those with proven recent form, with Tell Me Im Special (5) and Bet On The Jet (6) standing out.
