Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 2 - Race 2 - Starter Optional Claiming

RAPIDO ROSA (2) was an effortless winner last time over 1609m at Belterra Park Turf (Turf), scoring by 5.5 lengths. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Will give a great sight. SWEET SCORECARD (5) is rarely out of the frame on dirt but finished 9 lengths away in fourth over 1207m at this track two back. Again missed the placings but on turf most recently when 12th at Horseshoe Indianapolis Turf over 1006m. Drops back in grade. Sure to run well. BEST CUPCAKE (3) missed the placings two runs back then was never in contention last start when 16 lengths away in seventh over 1673m at this track. Finds a nice race and can feature in the finish. WILDWOOD QUEEN (1) made it four minor placings in a row last start when second over 1207m at Hawthorne (Dirt). Looks well placed so expect a big run this time.
