Hoosier Park Race 6 - Race 6
HEFFAE (4) finished seventh last start over 1609m at this track, beaten 30 metres, after a good second at this track the run prior. Finds a suitable assignment and can turn things around. MAXXIMILLION (3) made it two on the trot last start when he got the cash by 2.25 metres over 1609m at this track. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw. Leading hope based on those recent efforts. JAY ARE (7) is stepping out for the first time. By Helpisontheway and hails from the Mervin Schmucker stable. Will need a bit of luck negotiating a very wide starting position. Has the right credentials to play a major role. BEAVER (2) is the best of the rest after finishing third over 1609m at this track last time out.

Two back was well beaten into tenth behind Let B Express at this track over 1609m in a ISSC-2YOCG on October 10 at $29. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4 m finishing third behind Maxximillion at this track over 1609m in a ISSE-2CG on October 15 at $7. Capable of taking this out.

Two-year-old gelding (Helpisontheway - Always Be With You) making his debut. A bit of a push for him in early discussions is worth noting.
