Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 4 - Race 4 - Mdn Special Weight
MAX (4) finished 7 lengths away in fifth last time out over 1509m at Churchill Downs three weeks ago. Steps up in journey today. The one to beat in this line up. BEAU CUP (8) was out of the money on debut two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1106m at Churchill Downs Turf, beaten 9 lengths into sixth. Finds an easier assignment and can take this out. LUCKY TO DANCE (3) made her debut last start at a big quote but defied the market to grab third, beaten 4 lengths, over 1609m at Churchill Downs Turf (Turf). Must be included among the main hopes. NANCY MAK (7) fought on for third last start over 1710m at this track (Turf), beaten 5 lengths to add to some fine recent form. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways.
