Race of the Day:  Indiana  9\/12  Claim"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>The Spotlight feature is a 6 furlong claiming race that is restricted to three year olds that are non-winner of three races in their lifetime.\u00a0\u00a0 Of the eight entered, half the field has won two races in their career with the remainder only one.\u00a0 This is a dirt event and only for the fillies to be raced on a fast track.\u00a0 The claiming price for any of these ladies is $6,250.<\/p>\n<p>1\u00a0 MOB&#8217;S MONEY\u00a0 13\/1-Has had a disastrous time since leaving Hot races back in March, losing by double digit lengths in last four races at a scattering of distances from 7.5 furlongs up to 11.\u00a0 Drops back to shortest distance in long time for this one but not sold that it will make much of a distance but the drop in claiming levels could help some.\u00a0 Still, looks like an outsider.<\/p>\n<p>2\u00a0 YAMB KITTEN\u00a0 3\/1-Race sponsor brings in horse that comes off a win on this track with her early speed.\u00a0 She&#8217;s won two of last three starts and the distance looks to be one of her favorites.\u00a0 Grabs one of the top spots in this race.<\/p>\n<p>3\u00a0 POWERBALL MILLIONS\u00a0 11\/1-Broke maiden in last showing rare late speed and putting away a mini-field of entrants.\u00a0 That race was at mile and only try at that distance.\u00a0 Moves back to sprint where she&#8217;s winless in 9 starts.\u00a0 Mile might be her distance and could be running late is the formula she needs.\u00a0 Tough call here.\u00a0 If she runs late, may be a spoiler.<\/p>\n<p>4\u00a0 VIOLENT EMPIRE\u00a0 5\/1-Claimed early in the year and has since raced five times in allowance company, beaten badly in each effort.\u00a0 Takes notable drop in class back to cheap claimers and should be more competitive at this level.<\/p>\n<p>5\u00a0 STRONG VOODOO\u00a0 5\/2-ITM nearly two-thirds of the time in sprints, she returns to the shorter distance after a poor outing at a mile but competing with older horses.\u00a0 She tends to pick up minor spoils with fourth and fifth place finishes but could do a bit better with the weaker group in this field.<\/p>\n<p>6\u00a0 BWTHREE\u00a0 9\/2-This season, two of her top three speeds have been earned over the Indiana track.\u00a0\u00a0 She&#8217;s been ITM 8 of 11 starts in sprints and makes first start after a break of just over 2 months.\u00a0 May need this start to regain form.<\/p>\n<p>7\u00a0 ITXASPE\u00a0 10\/1-Makes fourth start of season and third in claiming class.\u00a0 Drops in the ranks but doesn&#8217;t look like it will make a huge difference after last competing with older horses and finishing at the back side of the field mixing it up with the $10,000 claiming group.\u00a0\u00a0 Still, this level makes sense for the entrant but may proof to be better on the grass than the dirt.<\/p>\n<p>8\u00a0 WASTED CARDS 9\/2-This lady tends to compete early in the race but has issues staying competitive when it counts.\u00a0 She recently returned to dirt with some decent grass outings earlier this year.\u00a0\u00a0 She takes a huge drop in the claiming levels and that could reek an improvement in results.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Yamb Kitten has had nice results lately and looks to be best in form, gets top pickings.<\/p>\n<p>Violent Empire gives up the allowance level where she was well over matched.\u00a0 Should find this level more accommodating.<\/p>\n<p>Wasted Cards also taking a nice drop, could walk off with a paycheck.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Spotlight feature is a 6 furlong claiming race that is restricted to three year olds that are non-winner
