Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 5 - Hoosier Breeders Sophomore H. Stakes

JR SHADOW BOY (7) is in top form with four wins on end, the most recent an effortless 4 lengths victory over 1106m in stakes class at this track (Dirt) a month ago. Yet to be beaten here from four starts. Sure to go well. MISTER T (1) clocked-in second behind JR SHADOW BOY last time out at Listed level at this track (Dirt) over 1106m. Excellent record here having never missed the placings in four starts, including three wins and one placing. Bold showing expected. Q'S TOPNOTCH (4) failed to threaten when fresh from a spell last time out, beaten 16 lengths into ninth over 1106m in stakes class at this track (Dirt). Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Sure to be competitive. HARD LUCK PRAYER (3) was prominent at the turn and finished second last start over 1673m at this track (Dirt), beaten one length. Will be rock-hard fit. Worth plenty of thought.

Form hard to fault. Comes here off a 30-day let-up. Last start 2nd in a small field at this track on June 11 over 1673m, 1.0 len behind Mystik Justice carrying 53.5kg at $1.10. The start before that favourite; won by 4 len at this track May 18 over 1609m defeating Forever Greedy carrying 53.5kg at $8.80. Thereabouts last time out. Definite top-three prospect.

Second run back. First-up after eight months ran second last of 10 at this track in LR on June 10 over 1106m, 16 len behind Jr Shadow Boy with 55.5kg at $78.40. Previously second-up won by 5 len at this track July 29 over 1207m defeating Wedge carrying 53kg at $5.70. Worth another chance.

Is yet to have his colours lowered in 4 runs. Comes here off a 31-day let-up. Last start ran on from midfield and scored a big 4 len win at this track LR June 10 over 1106m defeating Mister T with 55.5kg at $1.05. The start before that came from midfield and scored a big 9 len win at this track May 2 over 1207m defeating Kneedeepjustice carrying 54.5kg at $1.05. Everything points towards a big run.
