Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 8 - Race 8 - Mdn Claiming
JR BARTHOLOMEW (8) Good run when placing 2nd beaten by 3/4L last run around here. In top racing shape since coming back from a break. Should be competitive in this race at a bit of odds. TAMBOURINE MAN (9) Amongst the placegetters when 2nd beaten by 1L last start at Belterra Park and stepping up in distance. Should be rolling forward early from the wide draw. Can give this a shake. GDOUBLEYOU (6) Maintained a solid pace but eventually weakened to finish 3rd beaten by nearly 8L last time at this track. Will be around the mark at odds. POSITIVE EQUITY (3) Lost ground in the run home when 5th last run at this track. Displays good tactical speed. Amir Mendoza and Genaro Garcia are an appealing combination. A win wouldn't surprise.

Was $12.00 and weakened to finish 9th last start at Churchill Downs but drawn well. Can't have in this.

Odds of $16.00 and ran past a few when 4th last start here and was a debutant last start. Gets a favourable draw. Not in this.

Was $9.00 and didn't attack the line when 5th last run at this track. Amir Mendoza and Genaro Garcia must be respected when they team up. One of the punters top hopes at a very generous price.

At $23.00 didn't find the line when 6th last run at Saratoga. First start for a new trainer. Gets back and needs luck. Prefer a return to something a lot easier.

Odds of $53.00 and didn't threaten when 12th last time at Kentucky Downs. Might be ridden for luck. Very hard to have.

Did well to run into 2nd last start at Belterra Park and rising in trip. Been in the money 2 from 2 attempts this preparation. Serious contender.

Started at $16.00 and weakened under pressure when 9th last start at Churchill Downs. Has the necessary speed to overcome the wide draw. Watch the betting.
