Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 2 - Race 2 - Mdn Claiming
SANG (3) is a 12-start maiden who finished fourth, beaten 1.1 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Improvement to come and this is her chance to break through. RISING CREEK (7) was well supported on debut last start and turned in a strong effort to finish second over 1106m at Hawthorne (Dirt). Will be very hard to beat with that run under the belt. ARMY CHIC (4) showed little early speed and was always well back last start when eighth, beaten 11 lengths, over this journey at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Ideally placed and is sure to take a ton of beating. PREACH TEWMEY NOW (6) ran a fair race on debut last time out, beaten 3 lengths into fourth over 1308m at Churchill Downs (Dirt) on June 10. Strong top-three chance.
