Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 2 - Race 2 - Maiden Special Weight
NANZIG (5) is yet to break through after three career starts. Could only manage to finish eighth last time out over 905m at Churchill Downs (Dirt) following a minor placing at Churchill Downs (Dirt) over 1006m the run prior. Won't get too many better chances to open her account. LITTLE SAM'S (7) missed the frame on debut then improved last time when 4.5 lengths away in second over 1006m at this track (Dirt). Goes back from a wide draw but will wind up late. Hard to beat. HOT CRAZY MATRIX (2) made a promising debut over 1006m at this track (Dirt) last start, finishing third and beaten 9 lengths. Has plenty of upside so another bold showing is expected. JOKE MAKER (3) is facing the starter for the first time. By Practical Joke and comes from the Rodolphe Brisset stable. Watch the market closely.
