Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 5 - Race 5 - Mdn Claiming
THUNDER TOWN (1) Zipped home into 3rd last time at Belterra Park and has the ideal draw. Has to be strongly considered. BOMBAY (3) Ran 2nd last start at Colonial Downs and good career start. Expecting to settle positively. Amongst the placegetters regularly this preparation and rising in trip. Must be considered. THE TIPSY CROW (4) Was nothing special when 5th last run at Belterra Park. Will be there at the finish. DOSC (12) Career debut 2yo by Good Magic for trainer Brendan P Walsh. Betting is the best guide.

Competitive effort when 2nd last start at Colonial Downs and going over more ground. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Going well this campaign. Definite contender.

At $6.00 mediocre performance when 5th last run at Belterra Park. Could feature prominently.

At $8.00 pushed past some when 5th last start at Churchill Downs and was on debut last time. Marginal prospect.

Jumped at $28.00 and was well beaten when 6th last time at Kentucky Downs. Prefers to settle towards the tail. Not likely to be troubling the more fancied runners today.

Started at $5.50 and moved through the field into 4th last time at Presque Isle Downs and having second career run. Facing a rise in trip. A difficult test here.

Fresh from a spell. Odds of $23.00 and finished 6th last run at Colonial Downs. Hard to have.

Started $23.00 and lacklustre showing when 7th last time at this track but fitter for debut run. Going over extra ground. Could not recommend in this.

Did well to run into 3rd beaten by over 6L last run at the track and going back up in trip. Can't leave out of your calculations.
