Hoosier Park Race 1

Race 1

Stake: $15,397

PETE THE FREAK (3) last appeared when a second over 1609m at Hawthorne on December 21, capping off a fine prep that saw him salute on two occasions. Will enjoy a nice run from this favourable starting position. Likely to run a big race to kick off this campaign. ILIKEITLIKETHAT (1) finished sixth at this track two runs ago before finishing seventh at his latest appearance over 1609m at this track, beaten 18 metres. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. This doesn't look as hard so he is sure to prove tough to beat. ECHO CANYON (2) was responsible for a better effort last time out when third over 1609m at this track. Should run a big race. ROCKIN CAPTIAN (4) disappointed last time when seventh over 1609m at this track. Can do a lot better so worth considering.

Resuming after six months off the scene. Finished off last preparation when well beaten into second behind Fox Valley Silent at Hawthorne over 1609m in a 3&4YOSER on December 21 at $16.70. Previous preparation first-up won by 23 m as favourite (Fr2) at Hawthorne (1:54.30) beating Imapricelessprince in NW1CD on November 8 at $2.60. Genuine contender in this suitable contest.
