Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 7 - Race 7 - Claiming
CREEK VALLEY (9) had been in sparkling form winning two races on end before most recently finished third over 1609m at this track. Rates highly this line up and is worth another chance. NEON LEON (12) went forward last start over 1106m at this track (Dirt) and held on well for second, beaten 6 lengths. Has to overcome a tricky draw. Steps up a level but he is worth serious consideration. WINGS OF GOD (2) has been racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid third at this track (Dirt) over 1207m. Has a win and two minor placings from four starts at this track and distance. Should be involved in the finish. ONE DESTINATION (5) was below his usual level on the dirt track two back when seventh over 1673m at Belterra Park. Missed the placings again last time on turf over 1609m at Belterra Park. Better than recent runs indicate.
