Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 2 - Race 2 - Claiming
ROSSO FUOCO (1) is racing well, scoring two back at this track (Dirt) before finishing 0.8 lengths from the winner in second last time over 1609m at this track (Dirt). Should camp just off the leaders. Best form puts him right in this. MAGNUS GOLD (5) finished out of the money two starts back then he settled well back and was beaten 16 lengths when ninth in a 1710m contest at this track three-and-a-half weeks ago. Worth noting Emmanuel Esquivel goes aboard. Finds the right race this time and can get the job done. MYSTIK JUSTICE (2) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1609m at this track, beaten 5 lengths into fourth. Finds a nice race and can feature in the finish. RAPID JUSTICE (4) has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when 2.25 lengths away in third over 1609m at this track (Dirt). Well placed and will be thereabouts again.
