Hoosier Park has a 15-race card, and Indiana Sires Stakes action are the headliners. The 0.50 Late Pick 4 starts in Race 12, and it will be my focus. Comments and selections below are based on a fast track.

Race 12 (10:32 PM EST)

2-Chandler Bing (2-1)- The Alvin Miller 2-year-old is on quite a roll. Winner of the 3 straight is in a good spot to keep taking pictures. Should be racing with the leaders and likes to gobble up ground down the long HoP stretch.
8-Big Bad Moses (10-1)-Will look for a couple of prices, and this one gets the services of Dexter Dunn. The last time he steered it led to a picture. The post makes the price and has the gate speed to get a close-up seat when the wings fold.
9-Odds On Brahmastra (8-1)-Andrew MacCarthy grabs the lines for team Wrenn. The fractions should be lively, and the freshman can roll hard down the lane. Might be overlooked, and the driver change could make a difference.

Race 13 (10:55 PM EST)

2-Helpem Dance (12-1)-This is the 5th start on Lasix and has connected for a win but was pace compromised last time. Dexter Dunn steers for Jamie Macomber and the 3-year-old did close in 56.1 to lose by a neck. Best to respect the driver change and they won't go to the half this time in a tepid 58.1.
8-Dashing Danny (7/2)-Hasn't been as sharp after winning 5 straight. But raced better in last and should offer a solid price. There is not a lot of early speed in this affair and Kyle Wilfong should be out and rolling from the word "go".

Race 14 (11:18 PM EST)

3-Sabonis (4/5)-This 16-time winner in 2024 has only lost once. Should keep rolling unless if comes with an usual dull try. Joey Putnam shouldn't have an issue working an efficient trip.
6-Tellmeitmatters (9/2)-If there is to be an upset the Roger Welch pupil is my pick. This will be the 2nd start off the bench and likes to win (8-6-0-1) this year. Maybe the fresh horse angle clicks here and if so there will be some added juice to the Pick 4 payout.

Race 15 (11:41 PM EST)

5-Lovers Trouble (7/2)-Comes off a sharp win at HoP, was aided by a good trip but did pace the back-half in 54.3. The Joe B trainee was toughened up against older at Yonkers and could be ready to take another picture.
6-Play Action Pass (5/2)-Tried to wire the last field in the 1st start since shipping in from Delaware and just missed. Comes back in sequence this time, and gets a positive driver change with Yannick Gingras getting the nod. Could get the top off the gate and make every call a winning time.
