Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 9 - Race 9 - Mdn Claiming
MISS MOLLIE (4) made progress last time out, finishing 2 lengths from the winner in third when she made late ground at the end of 229m at Sandy Ridge. Finds a suitable assignment and can get the job done. ZZ APOLITICAL WIN (10) missed the placings two runs back then did well last start but found a couple better over 201m at Sandy Ridge, beaten only 0.4 lengths. Faces an easier assignment so he is a major player. ZAFIRO CARTEL (5) ran a better race last start at his second trip to the races, finishing fifth over 201m at Sandy Ridge (Dirt). Fitter and worth including. POLITICAL VICTORY (8) missed the placings two runs back then didn't do any better last start when 4.5 lengths away in ninth over 320m at this track. Well placed to bounce back.
