Hoosier Park Race 1 - Race 1
TOP ME OFF (5) resumes from a spell of three-and-a-half months after closing off last campaign in good form, the last run being a solid third over 1609m at this track. Expecting a bright start to the campaign. PONDA AESTHETIC (8) produced a better effort when second up at her latest appearance, finishing third over 1609m at this track. Interesting to see what unfolds from this wide draw. Meets some better types this time but another big run is on the cards. LATIN LOVER (7) last appeared when runner-up over 1609m at this track three-and-a-half months ago. Keep an eye out for positive market movement. SWAN EXPLOSION (4) resumes. Last appeared when a modest tenth over 1609m at Dayton Raceway four months ago.

Two back was well beaten into eighth behind Southwind Mai Tai at this track over 1609m in a NW3000L4CL on February 12 at $57.80. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4.5 m finishing second behind Full Strength at this track over 1609m in a NW3000L4CL on February 20 at $36.40. This race appears well within his grasp.
