Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 8 - Race 8 - Claiming
MUNNY TOWN (6) stuck on well to finish second last start over 1673m at Belterra Park (Dirt), beaten half a length as favourite. Meets some better types this time but this looks well within his grasp. PEOPLE FORCE (9) has switched yards since finishing fourth six weeks ago over 1609m at Belterra Park. Expect him to pose a serious challenge. BRAMBLE BLAZE (10) doesn't boast the best winning strike rate but ran a strong race last time out, finishing second and beaten only one length over 1609m at Belterra Park (Dirt). Going up a level this time but he has the ability to mix it with them. BIG COMMERCE (8) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1673m at Belterra Park, beaten 4 lengths into fourth. Suitably placed so can turn things around.

Returns from a 43-day let-up. Last start 7th of 9 at Fairmount Park on September 22 over 1710m, 16 len behind Category Ten carrying 53kg at $14.50. The run before that 4th of 9 at Fairmount Park on August 4 over 2012m, 8 len behind Code Runner carrying 53kg at $9.90. Cannot be ruled out despite a lacklustre effort last time.

Racing well recently. Last start 2nd of 7 at Belterra Park on October 10 over 1673m, 0.5 len behind Midnight Channel carrying 53.5kg at $2.50. The run before that eased back early on 3rd in a small field at Belterra Park on September 17 over 1609m, 5 len behind Rock N Roll Bolt with 54.5kg at $4.70. With a little improvement can take this out.
