Horseshoe Indianapolis Race 7 - Race 7 - Starter Optional Claiming
LEAVE IT TO KITTEN (8) showed good early dash and raced on the speed last start before fading to finish 4 lengths back in fourth over 1710m at this track (Turf). Well placed and expected to feature. GOVERNING PARTY (1) is in great form lately, notching up the hat-trick last start when he scored on dirt over 1673m at Fairmount Park. Has a strong association with Johanis Aranguren who has been in the saddle for his last three wins. Leading contender. OCEAN POINTE (2) has not won for a long while. Last raced on October 15 when beaten 5 lengths into eighth at this track (Turf) over 1710m. Stepping up a level this time but on his best form he is one of the key runners. TAPINYOURBLUEJEANS (6) is a last-start winner three weeks ago, scoring by one length over 1673m at Fairmount Park. Has a strong association with Javier Tavares who has been aboard for the last two wins. Right in the contest.
