Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 2 - Race 2 - Mdn Special Weight
TIZ AUTHORITY (4) is a six-start maiden who resumed from a spell last start and was beaten 6 lengths when fifth over 1106m at Churchill Downs Turf (Turf). Improvement to come and this is his chance to break through. GOLDEN DECREE (1) wasn't far away on debut last start over 1207m at this track (Dirt), finishing third and beaten 1.3 lengths. Will be very hard to beat with that run under the belt. BRIDGESONG (6) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start when he was never in contention over 1308m at Churchill Downs, beaten 8 lengths into seventh. Has the class to take this out. STOIC SAGE (7) improved last time out, finishing 5 lengths from the winner in second over 1609m at Churchill Downs. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well.
