Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 1 - Race 1 - Claiming

POP PAUL (3) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1207m at Churchill Downs, beaten 4.5 lengths into fourth. Ideally placed and is sure to take a ton of beating. SHIP SERVE (2) was in a different class last time with a dominant all-the-way win by 7 lengths at this track (Dirt) over 1006m. Expected to take some stopping again. THE EXODUS TWIST (4) pushed forward last time and boxed on to finish second over 905m at Charles Town (Dirt). Has been in sound form this prep with a win and four minor placings from 10 outings. Looks one of the prime contenders. TAZZY (5) improved sharply last time out to score by 6 lengths over 1207m at this track (Dirt) two-and-a-half weeks ago. Finds a suitable race and can figure in the finish.

Last start came from midfield and won by 6 len at this track June 15 over 1207m defeating Big Boy Thunder with 55.5kg at $5.90. The race before that sat behind the speed prior to fading 9th of 11 at Horseshoe Indianapolis Turf on May 11 over 1609m, 9 len behind Gotcha carrying 55.5kg at $23.70. No reason he cannot build on that success.
