Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 2 - Race 2 - Claiming
SPOTONJUSTICE (5) has progressed nicely in his last couple of runs. Finished second at this track (Dirt) two starts back then got the job done by 0.3 lengths as public elect last time out over 1106m at this track (Dirt). Stepping up a level this time but on current form he is right in contention. CATAMOUNT (4) has been out of the placings in two runs since a break, the latest when fifth, beaten 7 lengths, over 1408m at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Has further improvement to come and is sure to be about the mark. CRINGE (6) has not appeared since he finished seventh over 1207m at this track (Dirt) on November 3. Among the better hopes. BALADINE (3) is resuming from a spell of seven months and having his first run for the Hutch Holsapple yard. Was in the placings when first-up from a spell last campaign at Hawthorne (Dirt) over 1006m.

Racing well recently. At the latest run came from midfield and won by a 0.3 len at this track May 14 over 1106m defeating Me And Chili carrying 54kg at $2. Before that sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 8 at this track on April 29 over 1106m, 5 len behind Sound Doctrine carrying 54kg at $6.10. Got the job done last time and is a leading hope again.
