Hoosier Park Race 5 - Race 5
HOWARD HUGHES N (7) finished second last time out, beaten 1.5 metres, in a far better performance at this track over 1609m. Tactics will be crucial from this wide draw. Must raise the bar but he has the ability to go one better. ROUND HERE BUZZ (2) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 1.5 metres from the winner in second over 1609m at this track. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Leading hope based on those recent efforts. SHAMWOW (4) is on the radar after his last-start fifth over 1609m at this track a week ago. DIEGO N (1) is worth some thought after his last-start fourth over 1609m at this track on July 24.

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind Always A Laser at this track over 1609m in a 30-40000CL on July 17 at $9.10. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.5 m finishing second behind Play Me Rock at this track over 1609m in a NW3000L4 on July 24 at $1.90. Plenty to like about his prospects.
