Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 1 - Race 1 - Mdn Special Weight
MI PICARO (6) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1106m at this track, beaten 4 lengths. Looks well placed so expect another big run. EPHESIAN CAT (3) could only manage fifth on debut then improved last start but found one better over 1106m at this track, beaten 13 lengths after being in the firing line on the bend. Finds a suitable race and can find the winner's circle. CRAZY LUCK (1) ran a fair race on debut last time out, beaten 11 lengths into sixth over 1106m at this track (Dirt) on September 2. Among the better hopes. WHISKEY STORM (5) was safely held on debut last start, finishing 17 lengths behind the winner in fifth over 1106m at this track (Dirt). Plenty of scope for improvement. One of the hopes.

Jumped at big odds at debut, failed to make an impression; 6th of 9 at this track on September 2 over 1106m, 11 len behind J's Jersey Boy with 51kg at $42.60. Improver worth following up in this line-up.

Lining up for just third start. When well in the market at debut, 9th of 11 at this track on August 6 over 1006m, 17 len behind Q's Best Bet with 54kg at $4.70. Last start 6th of 8 at this track on August 31 over 1106m, 22 len behind Sleepy Beauty with 54.5kg at $14.40. Unlikely to threaten.
