Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 3 - Race 3 - Allowance
HE'S LATE AGAIN (5) dug deep to win by a nose two runs back in stakes class at Fairgrounds (Dirt) then finished sixth over 1609m in stakes class at Evangeline Downs (Dirt) last time. Will find this easier. Marcelino Pedroza sticks. Well placed and should be in the finish. FACT (3) was well fancied last start over 1710m at Keeneland (Dirt) when fourth, beaten 11 lengths. Deserves another chance. QUALITY MISCHIEF (2) is back from a spell of three-and-a-half months and does go well when fresh, including a win to launch last campaign over 1673m at this track (Dirt). Should be prominent. MAGICAL WISH (9) finished a 16 length fourth on dirt at Oaklawn Park two back. Switched to turf last time at Horseshoe Indianapolis Turf over 1609m and again missed the frame, finishing a 4.5 lengths seventh. Solid top-three prospects.

Returns from a 52-day let-up. At the latest run eased back early on in a small field at Keeneland on April 12 over 1207m, 13 len behind Senior Officer with 56kg at $19.79. The start before that 5th of 9 at Turfway Park on February 19 over 1308m, 8 len behind Rock N Roll Bolt carrying 56kg at $3.59. Likely to find this a bit tough.
