Hoosier Park Race 11 - Race 11
NECTAR OF THE GODS (3) Scored a victory by 3m last time at this venue and strong form at this trip. Mike Micallef rates highly aboard. Placed at every start this campaign. No surprise to see a forward showing and one of the main hopes in this race. SO JOYFUL (7) Picked up late to win last start at this venue and hard to fault at this distance. Maintaining a perfect record the last 2 starts and good career start. Can go on with it. FIFTY AND FAMOUS (1) Missed by a narrow margin last run at this venue and has drawn to do little work. Has not missed the money this preparation in 3 attempts. Solid place bet prospects. STARBOARD (2) Finished 6th last run around here. Should get going late. One at a decent price.

Was agonizingly close last run at this track and showing consistent performance in races. Has run into the placings at every start this preparation. Represents value.

Got the cash when winning by 3m last time at this track and will be well suited at the distance. Been in the money each attempt this campaign. Good tough competitor that can be supported.

Was $28.00 and ran 7th last run around here. Likely to get back in the field. Needs to improve.

Competed in a tight contest last run here and showing consistent performance in races. Will be trying to topple them late. Showing improvement in recent outings. Not ready for this level.

Jumped at $12.00 and inched into 4th last time at the track and solid career start. Has plenty of early speed. Going well this preparation. One for the exotics.

Flew home to win last start at this track and ideal trip as proven previously. On a winning streak the last 2 runs and promising career start. Should go very close.
