Hoosier Park Race 8 - Race 8

COMBUSTION (5) is racing well with four top-five finishes in succession, the latest effort a third at this track over 1609m. Recent efforts are good enough to take out a race like this. CROOKED SMILE (1) ran fourth last start at this track over 1609m, beaten 4.5 metres. Expected to run well. TELLMEABOUTIT (8) comes right into contention after scoring last start by 4 metres at this track over 1609m. ODDS ON OUTLIER (6) is worth some thought after his last-start sixth over 1609m at this track on August 14.

Solid run when beaten by 2.25 m finishing third behind Naturally Gifted at this track over 1609m in a NW4000L4-F on August 14 at $3. Then a handy effort when beaten by 5 m finishing third behind Golden Bay at this track over 1609m in a OPEN 2 on August 28 at $7. Capable of testing this line-up.

Showed ability the race before when he posted a big 7 m win as favourite (Fr6) at this track (1:50.20) beating Book The Fight in WO 5-9PM on July 31 at $2.90. Going okay so keep him safe.
