Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 6 - Race 6 - Maiden Special Weight
NAHLA (14) sets the standard after back-to-back 2nd placings, most recently at Gulfstream over 1408m beaten 1.8L after racing handy, and earlier 2nd at Tampa Bay over 1646m. MISO SPEEDY (9) rates a key danger off a debut 2nd at Gulfstream over 1106m, beaten 1.5L, and stretches out. SNOW BUNNY (13) brings local appeal after a 2nd at Horseshoe Indianapolis over 1207m on a sloppy track, while O G LEMON DROP (5) was 3rd here over 1674m and stays around the trip. Heavy conditions could test some, but the proven recent placings point to Nahla ahead of Miso Speedy and Snow Bunny. Something for the Multiples: O G LEMON DROP (5) MISO SPEEDY (9) NAHLA (14) SNOW BUNNY (13)
