Hoosier Park Race 6

Race 6

Stake: $25,194

ON TO NORWAY (1) is racing very well this preparation with top-three finishes at all seven starts, winning six of them. Last raced on May 26 when successful over 1609m at this track. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. This should be an easier assignment so he is sure to prove tough to beat again. PONDA ROCKY (7) finished fifth last start over 1609m at this track, beaten 15 metres. Best recent result was a win at this track three starts ago over 1609m. Interesting to see what unfolds from this wide draw. Beautifully placed and is sure to be there at the finish. PONDA BEAR (5) has to come into calculations on the back of some strong recent form, most recently when third at this track over 1609m. Must be included. URGENT MATTERS (3) is in the mix following a fourth at his most recent appearance over 1609m at this track.
