Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 4 - Race 4 - Allowance
SARGENT SULLY (2) has been kept fresh for this since a disappointing fifth over 1207m at Keeneland (Dirt) 30 days ago. Expected to bounce back. DAWN AT NORMANDY (3) proved too strong two runs ago at Oaklawn Park. Couldn't follow that up last time out when fourth over 1207m at Oaklawn Park, beaten 4 lengths. Beautifully placed and is sure to play a pivotal role. TAP TAP TAP IT IN (6) finished second over 1308m at Turfway Park (Synthetic) at his most recent appearance on January 8. Has to be respected. POETIC WORDS (5) raced on the speed and dug deep to score by 3 lengths at this track and distance last start to maintain his good form of late. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he can win again.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run raced right near the speed and boxed on; scored a big 3 len win at this track April 14 over 1207m defeating The Exodus Twist carrying 54kg at $2.30. Before that 3rd of 7 at Mahoning Valley on March 13 over 1609m, 2.25 len behind Hoby Cat carrying 57kg at $19.10. Among the winning hopes on best form.
