Hoosier Park Race 9

Race 9

Stake: $112,126

MR BEAR (1) took full advantage of the inside draw when a dominant winner at this course and distance last time out. Has the benefit of another good draw. Primary contender in a similar race. CAPT PEACH (4) has been racing well, filling a top-five position at his last four starts including a second most recently at this track over 1609m. Finds a tougher race but a win is not out of the question. SOGGY MAN (2) is worth plenty of thought off a last-start win by 0.8 metres at this track over 1609m. GWTRIGGER (7) is worth another chance after a last-start seventh over 1609m at this track three-and-a-half weeks ago.

Brings the right form to the table. Posted a big 6 m win as favourite (Fr1) at this track (1:52.00) beating Another Mile Again in ISS-2CGP on July 29 at $1.10. Two runs back posted a big 6 m win as favourite (Fr1) at this track (1:51.00) beating Tell Me It's You in ISS-2CGP on July 10 at $1.10. Flying at present and is a huge chance again.

Fair run when beaten by 4 m finishing second behind Canttouchem at this track over 1609m in a 2YOCGNW1-E on August 7 at $6.20. Then a handy effort when well beaten into second behind Tell Me It's You at this track over 1609m in a 2YOCGNW1-F on August 14 at $6. Well placed, should prove hard to beat.

Been racing well and showed plenty of improvement following July 29 run. Last start won by 2.25 m as favourite (Fr3) at this track (1:52.20) beating Moe Pleasure in 2YOHGNW1PM on August 13 at $1.50. This race will be harder than that win. Prepared to risk.

Failed to impress last start; 7th (Fr7) over 1609m at this track, beaten 22 m by Dr Drake (1:51.20) in ISS-2CGP on July 29 at $5.10. Showed ability the run before when he won by 3 m as favourite (Fr8) at this track (1:53.40) beating La Captain Morgan in ISSE-2CG on July 21 at $1.60. Don't dismiss on the latest effort.
