Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 2 - Race 2 - Mdn Claiming
RISING CREEK (1) Couldn't shake them off when 2nd beaten by 4L last start at Fanduel Sportsbook And Horse Racing and has the ideal draw. This race looks suitable and is hard to overlook. BIRKIN ELEGANCE (6) Was found wanting late when 2nd beaten by 3/4L last run at Belterra Park and showing improvement in recent outings. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Should be competitive in this race at a bit of odds. SAINT LAURENT (4) Couldn't maintain the pace when 10th last start at the track. Expecting improvement here but dropping back to a shorter trip. Not out of this. PURSE SNATCHER (5) Back from a 49 week spell. Was well beaten when 11th last start around here. Has very good finishing speed. Could be value.

Started $53.00 and ordinary performance when 8th last run at this venue but fitter for debut run. Gets back and needs luck. Has a good draw. Much prefer the look of others in this race.

Fresh today after a 49 week spell. Mediocre performance when 7th last run at Churchill Downs and back to a shorter trip. Will be motoring home late. Prefer in a much weaker race.

Jumped at $6.00 and weakened under pressure when 10th last start around here. Expecting improvement here but dropping in distance. Some respect.

First up from a break of 49 weeks. Was $14.00 and gave away some ground when 11th last start at the track. Has a nice turn of foot. Place and exotics candidate.

Was outmatched at the end of the race when 2nd beaten by 3/4L last run at Belterra Park and demonstrating upward trajectory in recent races. Win won't shock.
