Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 10 - Race 10 - Maiden Special Weight
AMANI'S MUSIC (7) brings the strongest recent figures, beaten 0.1L when 2nd at Gulfstream over 1006m before a solid 4th at Keeneland over 1106m, and looks suited dropping to 1005m. JR MISS BUTTERCUP (1) has twice boxed on for 3rd in Horseshoe MSWs over 1207m, leading throughout before fading late, and the shorter trip can help. NO SELF CONTROL (10) has speed and was 3rd here over 1106m last time after setting the pace, while LA PUMA (3) wasn’t far away when 5th at Keeneland over 1106m and gets blinkers. Leading chances: Amani's Music (7), Jr Miss Buttercup (1), No Self Control (10), La Puma (3).
