Hoosier Park Race 1

Race 1

Stake: $26,027

PONDA EXECUTIVE (4) continued the strong recent form when he scored last start over 1609m at this track. Meets a similar line up so he can certainly make his presence felt. ON TIME TED (6) produced another strong performance last time when he battled on bravely to just miss out over 1609m at this track, adding to an impressive run of top-three results. Meets a similar line up and he can figure in the finish. ROCKMELIKEYAMEANIT (5) is a great chance after a string of sound recent performances, the latest a solid fourth at this track over 1609m. Hard to find fault. HOWARD HUGHES N (1) is the best of the rest after finishing fifth over 1609m at this track last time out.
