Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 4 - Race 4 - Mdn Special Weight
ARMET (8) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start when he settled well back over 1207m at Churchill Downs, beaten 10 lengths into eighth. Finds a more suitable contest and can get the job done. OUTOFPI (6) returned last time with a solid second at this track (Turf) over 1006m after being prominent at the bend. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he is good enough to play a major role. AUMOE (2) raced on the speed last time but couldn't finish the race off and clocked-in fifth over 1207m at Horseshoe Indianapolis (Dirt). Finds the right race and is worth consideration. COUNTTHECARATS (9) was last at the races when he finished tenth over 1207m at Turfway Park (Synthetic) on December 21. Among the better hopes.
