Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 8 - Race 8 - Starter Optional Claiming
GO TOWN (9) turned in a fine effort to score by 6 lengths at this track and distance last time out to continue her outstanding recent form. Facing a tougher assignment but she is up to the task. CHAMPAGNE NIGHTS (6) is in top form, most recently recording a win by 1.75 lengths over 1609m at Belterra Park Turf (Turf) to make it two in succession. Great chance to extend the sequence. FOOTNOTE (10) dug deep to win by half a length two runs back at this track (Dirt) then finished ninth over 1811m in Listed grade at Churchill Downs Turf (Turf) last time. Will find this easier. Can bounce back to winning form. RAZZLE RED (7) was unwanted in betting last start but performed beyond expectations when beaten 1.1 lengths into fourth over 1609m at Churchill Downs Turf (Turf). Has sound form at this track and distance with a win and two minor placings from four runs. Not to be discounted.

Comes here off a 50-day let-up. Most recently won by 1.0 len at Thistledown May 20 over 1609m defeating Tia Lupe with 54kg at $9.30. The run before that ran second last in a small field at Mahoning Valley on April 8 over 1609m, 6 len behind Lead The Way with 56kg at $6.50. Hard to have on recent performances.
