Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 5 - Race 5 - Allowance Optional Claiming
HAWKEYE (1) went forward and proved too strong last time out, scoring by 4 lengths over 1207m in Listed grade at this track (Dirt). This doesn't look as hard so he is one of the main contenders. CAT ON TIME (4) returns from the paddock after closing last prep with two consecutive wins, the most recent over 1308m at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Leading contender. LOFTY ADJUDICATOR (2) was never in contention when resuming last start over 1207m in Listed grade at Churchill Downs (Dirt), finishing sixth and beaten 16 lengths. Drops back in grade. Well placed and should be in the finish. MULTITASK (5) was beaten 6 lengths into sixth in a 1207m contest at Delaware Park at his latest appearance. Capable of featuring prominently.

Most recently held ground to the line 2nd of 7 at this track on June 4 over 1207m, nose behind Dawn At Normandy with 55.5kg at $5.20. The race before that sat behind the speed prior to fading to run last of 7 at Oaklawn Park on April 19 over 1207m, 3.5 len behind Devil's Tower with 54kg at $3.10. Others offer greater appeal.

At the latest run ran second last of 7 at Delaware Park in LR on June 13 over 1207m, 6 len behind Quint's Brew with 55.5kg at $16.90. Before that 6th of 8 at Churchill Downs on May 21 over 1408m, 7 len behind Built carrying 55kg at $14.90. Better than that recent moderate performance suggests.
