Hoosier Park Race 1

Race 1

Prize Money: $7,846

BUNDORAN N (9) failed to flatter last time out when sixth, beaten 13 metres, over 1609m at this track. Interesting to see what unfolds from this wide draw. Perfectly placed and is sure to prove tough to beat. STARLIT BEACHBOY (4) resumes here after closing his last campaign with a eighth at this track on May 15. Capable of playing a major role so has to be respected. FOX VALLEY STOLI (1) is worth another chance after a last-start tenth over 1609m at this track six weeks ago. CHESAPEAKE SUNRISE (5) is in the mix following a respectable second at his most recent appearance over 1609m at The Red Mile.

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind Bundoran at this track over 1609m in a 5000 CL on July 24 at $18.70. Then a handy effort when a close second behind Street Boy at The Red Mile over 1609m in a 10000CL on August 17 at $8.39. Strong winning hope.

13-year-old gelding showed improvement last time. 3rd (Fr5) over 1609m at this track beaten 5 m by Straightsierrablue (1:54.00) in 5000 CL on August 25 at $14.30. The race before was not as impressive when well beaten into fifth behind Bro Hug at this track over 1609m in a 5000 CL on August 18 at $9. Needs to lift.

Failed to impress last start; 6th (Fr3) over 1609m at this track beaten 13 m by Captain Sleaze (1:52.30) in 10000 CL on August 22 at $1.90. Showed ability the run before when he won by 16 m as favourite (Fr5) at this track (1:05.30) beating Seaside Hanover in TMR 72 -F on August 15 at $1.40. Looks the testing material.
