Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 2 - Race 2 - Allowance Optional Claiming
LIAMS FANCY (8) Ran a solid race on the speed before weakening to finish 2nd last run here and solid career start. Has plenty of early speed. Racing in stronger company. No shock to see a win. SOUL OF THE NIGHT (2) Rounded them up when winning last start at Churchill Downs and drawn nicely. Cruz Fernando De La and Brad H Cox are an imposing duo. Shows good closing speed. Will give a big sight. GIN FOR GEM (7) Gave them a lesson when winning by 4L last start at this track and was a debutant last start. Facing a stronger grade. Can figure. STELLA'S MISCHIEF (4) Stormed home to win last run here and promising career start. Has not missed the placings this preparation in 3 attempts but matched against tougher rivals. Worth an each way bet in this.

Despite being overrun still grabbed 2nd last run around here and showing consistent performance in races. Walter A Rodriguez and Larry Rivelli deserve serious consideration as a team. No surprise to see solid support in the betting.
