Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 5 - Race 5 - Maiden Claiming
HE'S A CHARMER (8) is yet to break through in six runs. Finished 12th at his last appearance over 1609m at Keeneland Turf (Turf) on April 3 after he gave away a big start. Rates highly in this field and can turn things around. IN THE TANK (7) returned from a spell a month ago when he was prominent at the turn before being beaten 2.25 lengths into fourth over 1408m at Keeneland. Ideally placed and is sure to find some form. BREAKAWAY (2) has not raced since his debut back on March 7 when he finished eighth over 1609m at Fairgrounds Turf (Turf). Worth following up. THE FED'S PLOT (9) ran below expectations when fresh from a spell at Turfway Park (Synthetic) over 1609m last time, finishing fifth and beaten 6 lengths. Well placed to turn things around.
