Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 4 - Race 4 - Mdn Special Weight
FASHION DESIGNER (12) Fresh today after a break of 30 weeks. Finished well when 3rd last run at Churchill Downs and facing a rise in trip. Likely to be well placed early. One of the top hopes. MOREMI (9) Rey Hernandez 3yo by Essential Quality having first race start. Respect the betting. OUTRO (1) Passed some rivals in the late stages when 5th last run at the track and drawn the rails. Jockey Alberto Burgos and trainer Brendan P Walsh are consistently competitive together. Worth consideration. SMITTEN (2) Kept chasing when 3rd last time at the track and can find a nice position from the draw. Jockey Santo Sanjur and trainer William I Mott are a proven combination. Must respect.

Odds of $3.50 and crept into 5th last run at this track and drawn well. Alberto Burgos and Brendan P Walsh link well together. Should come to hand quickly. Good prospects.

Ran on strongly when 3rd beaten by just over 8L last time at this venue and has a positive alley. Has definite claims.

Got going late when 4th last time at Churchill Downs. Displays good tactical speed. In fine form this preparation. The large claim from Micah Meeks should help. Definite contender.

First run back from a break. Clearly outclassed when 7th last time at Keeneland but having second career run. Will be hitting the line strongly. Has some claims.

First up from a spell of 30 weeks. Ran on when 3rd beaten by 6L last run at Churchill Downs and racing over more ground. Promising career start. Gets a solid chance here.
