Hoosier Park Race 5 - Race 5

DOVER IN MOTION (5) scored a authoritative win when fresh from a layoff last time out over 1609m at this track on February 20, finishing 7 metres ahead of his rivals. Facing a tougher assignment but he is up to the task. NIKO MAN (7) scored at Miami Valley Raceway two runs ago before having his colours lowered when sixth at his latest appearance over 1609m at Miami Valley Raceway, beaten 25 metres. Tactics will be crucial from this wide draw. Finds a suitable assignment and can find winning form. A REAL LEGEND (8) must be considered after he finished runner-up when resuming over 1609m at this track a week ago. DRINK UP DRINK UP (3) ended last prep with a fourth at Dayton Raceway over 1609m 11 weeks ago. Capable of a forward showing while fresh.

Failed to impress last start; 6th (Fr7) over 1609m at Miami Valley Raceway beaten 25 m by Oh Look Magic (1:51.30) in OPEN HC on February 18 at $29.60. Showed ability the race before when he won by a 0.6 m (Fr2) at Miami Valley Raceway (1:56.20) beating Robert Michael in NW16501L4 on February 11 at $3.90. Well placed, should prove hard to beat.

Second-up here following a spell. Solid effort when 2nd (Fr6) over 1609m at this track beaten 7 m by Dover In Motion (1:55.10) in OPEN 2-3 on February 20 at $1.60. Major player with that run under his belt.
