Hoosier Park Race 9 - Race 9

WESTERN ERA (6) has been competitive of late and kept the ball rolling last time when 2.25 metres from the winner in third over 1609m at this track. Good enough to put himself in the winners' stall. DOWNBYTHEOCEAN (1) resumes here after closing his last prep with a fifth at this track on June 27. Expect him to be prominent. HENRY THE HORSE (5) is on the radar after his last-start fifth over 1609m at this track six days ago. JOKER ROCKWELL (3) is the best of the rest after finishing sixth over 1609m at this track last time out.

Two back was well beaten into fifth behind Combustion at this track over 1609m in a OPEN 2 on September 4 at $18.70. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2.25 m finishing third behind Play Me Rock at this track over 1609m in a NW3000L4 on September 12 at $3.20. Capable of testing this line-up.
