An ordinary claimer can go to Par Indianna, who is marginally preferred over Heartshead Dream and Stylish Sunrise, who are both in good form at the moment and are respected accordingly. However, neither has been noted for possessing a live turn of foot and, like Platinum Pirate, could be vulnerable to something that can quicken at the end of it's race. Which brings us back to Pa Indiana, who has been patiently handled with only four previous outings before today. The daughter of Indian Rocket is yet to really show what she can do when she has really been popped the question. But has she shown plenty of promise by progressing with each outing up to press. Her form with Tudor Bell reads well in the context of this heat and, if the previous event boosts the form, it will not be surprising to see Par Indianna go off as the best supported horse in the race.
