Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 2 - Race 2 - Mdn Claiming
RISING CREEK (7) Caught the eye when 2nd beaten by 1/2L last start at Hawthorne and having second career run. Rodney A Prescott consistently performs well for this stable. Good chance and wouldn't be surprised to see it pick up a win. SANG (3) Faded to finish 4th last start at this track. Is capable of a resurgence. Should race on the speed. Prominent showing expected and won't be far off them. ARMY CHIC (4) Lacklustre showing when 8th last time at Churchill Downs. Will be hitting the line strongly. Among the major players. MISS MONROE COUNTY (2) Faded away to finish 8th last time here. Looking past the last run and has a positive draw. Will be positive in the run early. Can make a claim.

Started $43.00 and gave away some ground when 7th last time at Churchill Downs but can save some energy from the draw. Tough ask.

Was $18.00 and folded up in the straight when 8th last time at this track. Looking past the last run and gets a favourable draw. Has plenty of early speed. Can measure up against these.

Odds of $6.00 and couldn't maintain the pace when 4th last start around here. Is capable of a resurgence. Should muster plenty of early speed. Will be in the finish.
