Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 5 - Race 5 - Maiden Claiming
MI SARGENTO (2) finished third, beaten 5.5 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 1106m at this track (Dirt). Placed to advantage so expect a big run. BOLD JUSTICE (9) last appeared when he finished sixth over 1710m at this track (Dirt) on November 12. Now under the care of new trainer Jose Cazares. Rates highly and should take some beating. LIL CHANCE (8) finished 7 lengths from the winner in fourth last start after being prominent at the bend over 1106m at this track, an improvement on his first-up seventh at this track the run before. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. Z'S FIREBALL (4) is back after a break of six months. At the last run before the layoff he finished ninth over 1106m at this track (Dirt). Has ability so don't underestimate.
