Hoosier Park Race 11 - Race 11
BUZZSAW RUSS (6) went well to finish third two starts ago then recorded a commanding win last start, scoring by 5 metres over 1609m at this track. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he has the ability to mix it with them. MUSKATEER HANOVER (1) is in good form at present. Finished third at his latest appearance over 1609m at Meadowlands, beaten 6 metres. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Finds a nice race and can grab a well-deserved win. BIRTHDAY (8) is one of the main contenders after winning his past two starts, the latest at The Meadows two weeks ago. Difficult to ignore that sort of form. GOLDEN BAY (3) has put the writing on the wall with a couple of seconds recently, the latest at this track over 1609m.
