Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 6 - Race 6 - Allowance Optional Claiming
SOUL OF THE NIGHT (3) Tidy effort when 3rd last start here and promising career start. Jockey Cruz Fernando De La usually performs well for this stable. In top form this campaign. Has genuine claims in this race. SAMI MICHAL (2) Led and controlled the pace when winning by 1 1/4L last run at this venue and having second race start. Drawn nicely. Competing at a higher class. Right in this. BRIGHTWATER (6) Flew home to win last time around here but up against tougher rivals. Brody Martinez is a bonus. Armando Hernandez has been training plenty of winners recently. Large claim helps. Can go on with it. STELLA'S MISCHIEF (4) Not up to scratch when 4th last time around here but honest performer putting a tidy record together. Very competitive this campaign. Shows good finishing speed. This field suits.

Was much too speedy in front when winning by 1 1/4L last run around here and having second career run. Has a positive draw. Challenged by a tougher grade. Very capable of taking this out.

Finished 3rd last start at the track and solid career start. Jockey Cruz Fernando De La and trainer Brad H Cox show promise as a duo. Very competitive this preparation. Strong chance to be considered.

Jumped at $8.50 and lacklustre showing when 4th last time at this track but putting a tidy record together so far. Tracking very well this preparation. Respect the betting.

Took charge of the race when winning by 2 3/4L last start at this venue and was on debut last time. Santiago Gonzalez and Pablo Andrade are a promising combination. Must respect.

Picked up late to win last time at this venue but challenged by more formidable competitors. Stable is in form. Jockey Brody Martinez is a bonus. Chance and can measure up.

Jumped at $43.00 and sub-standard effort when 7th last run at Churchill Downs and down in trip. Showing great form since resuming from a break but taking on stronger opponents. Not threatening these.
