Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 9 - Snack H. Stakes

TAIL GUNNER (2) is a talented colt who was tested in tougher class last time when fifth over 1207m in Listed grade at Horseshoe Indianapolis (Dirt). Has been in solid form this campaign with a win and two minor placings from five starts. Should prove tough to beat. HARD LUCK PRAYER (12) stuck on well last start to finish second over 1207m in stakes class at Horseshoe Indianapolis (Dirt) after showing good early speed. In the right race and is a winning hope. Q'S TOPNOTCH (9) finished 4 lengths away in fourth last time out over 1207m at Horseshoe Indianapolis a month ago. Steps up in journey today. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. One of the main contenders. BRAZILIAN CONEXAO (4) missed the placings two runs back then didn't do any better last start when 14 lengths away in eighth over 1609m at this track. No surprise to see him in contention.
