Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 5 - Race 5 - Mdn Special Weight
RUETTIGER (1) 2yo debutant sired by Epicenter for Riley Mott and has a nice advantage with a good draw. Keep your eye on the market. NOE STANDARD RISK (10) By My Standards 2yo having first race appearance for trainer Anna Marie Meah. Betting as a guide. BECK'S SAM (4) First race appearance 2yo by Mendelssohn for Concepcion Torres. Follow the money. ET AL (6) Tidy effort when 3rd last run at Ellis Park and rising in distance. Likely to be well placed early. Respect against this field.

Was $4.00 and made some ground when 5th last time at Ellis Park and having second career run. Gets a favourable draw. Going over extra ground. Overlook from a betting angle.

At $5.50 ran 7th last time at this venue but fitter for debut run. Facing a rise in trip. Slim possibilty.

Jumped at $18.00 and finished 6th last run at this track but fitter for debut run. Racing over a longer distance. Will be tested.

Nice run when 3rd last run at Ellis Park and racing over more ground. Will be positive in the run early. Good prospects.

Jumped at $14.00 and didn't find the line when 6th last start at Saratoga but was on debut last time. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. Not at all out of this race.

Came on strongly to finish 2nd when beaten by 3/4L last time around here. Definitely worth considering.

At $8.00 lacklustre showing when 6th last run at Presque Isle Downs but having second race start. Stepping up in distance. Hard to see this being good enough.

Odds of $18.00 and gave away some ground when 11th last time at Ellis Park but was on debut last time. Likely to settle back in the field. Prefer a race with softer competition.
