Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 9 - Race 9 - Mdn
RUBYS FIRST KISS (8) has been in great form with two placings in succession, most recently when beaten one length into third over 229m at Sandy Ridge (Dirt) when he was always up in the leading division. Finds a suitable race and can get the job done. JESS OFF THE WAGON (1) gave a great sight last time, leading into the lane and boxing on well for a close second over 274m at this track (Dirt) when well in the market. That made it two minor placings from three runs this preparation. Genuine type who is a leading hope. MO ZOOMO S (4) hadn't been far away prior to finishing 7 lengths adrift in tenth last start over 320m at Sandy Ridge (Dirt). Open to plenty of improvement. MP MOTORING A WIN (2) was close to a maiden win before a three months break, finishing off with a placing over 320m at this track (Dirt). Can pick up where he left off. Nicely placed and can feature in the finish.
