Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 1 - Race 1 - Mdn Claiming
EL JOVERO (5) finished third last time out over 1673m at this track (Dirt), making it five career minor placings. Has a solid record at this track, finishing in the top-three five times. A maiden win looks imminent. MISTER SPITFIRE (4) missed the placings on debut two runs back then was never in contention last start when 22 lengths away in seventh over 1106m at this track. Finds a suitable assignment and can find winning form. INDY KID (3) was out of the money when resuming two runs back then again missed the frame last start when he was always well out of his ground over 1673m at this track, beaten 9 lengths into seventh. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. OOH MY BOB (1) was in the firing line on the corner and finished second last time over 1609m at this track (Dirt), beaten 10 lengths. Placed to advantage and can run a bold race.

Third-up today and placed third-up previously. Resuming eased back early on 7th of 9 at Hawthorne Turf on May 10 over 1509m, 14 len behind Nitschke carrying 56.5kg at $24.10. Second run from a spell sat on the pace when 3rd of 8 at this track on June 6 over 1673m, 1.1 len behind Amigomeister with 56kg at $8.20. Fitter now and making headway. Will take beating.
