Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 5 - Race 5 - Maiden Special Weight
SOCORRO'S PRAYER (10) wasn't far off maiden success before a five months break, finishing the prep with a minor placing at this track (Dirt). Has a wide gate to overcome. Looks all set to kick the campaign off the right way. HARD LUCK PRAYER (9) wasn't far off maiden success before a break of five months, finishing the campaign with a minor placing over 1106m at this track (Dirt). Rates highly and is a strong chance to break through. MIKESTRUMPCARD (11) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start when he got a long way back over 1207m at Oaklawn Park, beaten 14 lengths into ninth. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. EL PAYASITO (2) is a three-year-old gelding on debut from the stable of Genaro Garcia. By Sleepy Eyes Todd from Bird's Belle. A good gate is sure to assist. Worth watching for a betting push.
