Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 5 - Race 5 - Maiden Special Weight
FOREVER HOPE (10) sets the standard after a strong 2nd here over 1207m last start, leading and beaten 2.8L by Rosso Fuoco. MOVIN OUT (12) was close-up 3rd in the same race, holding his spot throughout and should be prominent again. BASIL (8) also comes through that April 22 run, finishing 4th at 1207m and maps to get a similar stalking trip. THOUSANDS OF HOPES (6) brings consistent local placings, including 2nds at 1106m and a recent 3rd, and looks a key chance back up in trip. AUMOE (2) was 3rd over 1106m here before and can improve dropping back from a mile.
