Hoosier Park Race 8

Indiana Sires Stakes 3Yo C&G Trot Ms

Prize Money: $76,284

GRUESOME TWOSOME (7) form this prep has been excellent and he made it two from two when successful at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, getting home by 4 metres. Interesting to see what unfolds from this wide draw. Won't find this any harder and he can grab another win. KNOWYOUCANDO (4) put together a series of minor placings then raised his game last start on June 13 over 1609m at this track, getting home by 2.25 metres. Meets a comparable field and he can salute once again. CS FLYING CO PILOT (5) has a strong record here which is significant. Finished second over 1609m at this track last time out. ELHELPSKI (3) is the best of the rest after finishing sixth first-up over 1609m at this track last time out.

Last start 8th (Fr8) over 1609m at this track beaten 24 m by Hudson Swan (1:53.30) in NW3-5 on June 20 at $40.90. Two runs back 5th (Fr1) over 1609m at this track, well beaten by Knowyoucando (1:56.00) in ISS-3C-LG2 on June 13 at $10.20. Would rather see in something easier.

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind Gruesome Twosome at this track over 1609m in a ISS-3C-LG2 on June 13 at $12.20. Then a handy effort when a close second behind Hudson Swan at this track over 1609m in a NW3-5 on June 20 at $2.20. Nice effort last time. Leading contender.
