Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 5 - Race 5 - Mdn Claiming
BURN BRIGHTLY (4) returned from a spell two weeks ago when she was beaten 10 lengths into fifth over 1609m at Horseshoe Indianapolis Turf. Will enjoy a drop in class so she is a key runner. SUCCY'S SONG (8) finished 3 lengths away in third when resuming from a break on a dirt track at this track over 1207m. Followed up with an unplaced effort on turf at Horseshoe Indianapolis Turf over 1609m. Worth following up back on dirt. KATHI'S GIRL (7) was in a rearwards position on the turn last time out before finishing 19 lengths from the winner in eighth over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Finds the right race and is worth consideration. THIS LITTLE LIGHT (10) was beaten 7 lengths into fourth over 1207m at this track last time out. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
