Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 5 - Crown Ambassador S. Stakes
Q'S BEST BET (7) First up after a break. Bold effort when winning last run at this track but competing at a higher level of competition. Expect to go close. KANSASCITYJUSTICE (6) Threw down a serious challenge last time here and honest performer putting a tidy record together. Has plenty of early speed. Been in the placegetters each start this preparation. This field suits. JAGUAR JUSTICE (2) Spaced the field to win by a margin of 3L last start around here and gets a favourable draw. Has not missed the placings this preparation in 2 attempts. Can go on with it. MI PICARO (9) Was eating up the ground late to win last run at this track but taking on stronger rivals. Should be swooping on the field late. One to watch closely and a legitimate knockout hope.

Threw down a serious challenge last run at this track and has drawn to do little work. Has run into the money 2 from 2 attempts this preparation. Slight prospect.

Put a gap on the rest when winning by 3L last start at this venue and will try to take advantage of the draw. Placed at every start this campaign. Definite contender.

At $8.50 picked up some ground to run 5th last start at the track but testing ability against stronger contenders. Not threatening these.

Outgunned at the finish when 2nd last start at this venue and promising career start. Should muster plenty of early speed. Running with confidence since returning from a spell. Could not recommend in this.

Close to claiming the win last time at this track and showing consistent performance in races. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. Racing against tougher rivals. Can win this.

Started $7.50 and struggled with the pace when 5th last run at Mountaineer Park and facing a stronger group of contenders. Prefer in an easier race.

Picked up late to win last run at this venue and demonstrating upward trajectory in recent races. Will be hitting the line strongly. Facing stiffer opposition. Could be in the mix.
