Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 2 - Race 2 - Mdn Claiming
RISING CREEK (1) looks close to a win after finishing in the money at both runs, the latest when second at Fairmount Park (Dirt) over 1207m. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. Sure to be in the finish. BIRKIN ELEGANCE (6) was in contention on the corner and ran a better race last start to finish a close second over 1006m at Belterra Park Turf after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Taking on a better line-up this time but she deserves plenty of thought. HOPE RESTORED (3) didn't make an impact at her last run before going for a spell on September 14, finishing seventh and beaten 22 lengths over 1710m at Churchill Downs (Dirt). One to consider. SAINT LAURENT (4) settled well back when 34 lengths from the winner in tenth over 1710m at Horseshoe Indianapolis Turf last start, a less impressive effort than her sixth on debut at Ellis Park Turf the run before. It doesn't get any easier but on her best form she is one of the chief contenders.

Resuming after a 11 months break. Not seen since she finished last of 11 at Horseshoe Indianapolis Turf September 16 over 1006m, 12 len behind A Stern Lady with 54.5kg at $12. On debut fourth of 9 at Horseshoe Indianapolis Turf August 26 over 1006m, 8 len behind Gigabit with 54.5kg at $10.40. Has solid claims.

The run before that 4th of 8 at Belterra Park Turf on June 3 over 1006m, 10 len behind Sisterlithic with 55kg at $10. Another bold run is expected.
