Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 8 - Race 8 - Mdn Special Weight
VISUAL (6) finished sixth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1106m at this track, beaten 4 lengths after being in contention on the bend. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. MIKESTRUMPCARD (1) is a six-start maiden who finished eighth at his most recent outing over 1609m at this track (Dirt) after he gave away a big start. Among the top chances in what looks a most suitable race. TA TA TODAY JUNIOR (2) is yet to break through in six runs. Finished fourth at his last appearance over 1106m at this track (Dirt) on May 25. Worth including in this suitable contest. UNBRIDLED VALOR (7) finished 9 lengths away in seventh at his last appearance over 1106m at this track (Dirt) on May 25 after he gave away a big start. Cannot be ruled out in this suitable assignment.
