Race 7 at Indiana Downs figures a very tough low level allowance slugfest between some good turf horses. In other words, it’s the perfect place for BetUS racebook fans to find a horse to try and make profits with.

Let’s take a look at Race 7 at Indiana Downs on Tuesday night.

Indiana Downs – Race 7

Allowance $21,000 n2L

For Fillies and Mares Three Years Old and Upward Which Have Never Won Two Races

1 mile (turf)

Winners Get Even - - 5/1 morning line

There isn’t a whole lot not to like about this daughter of Stephen Got Even that broke her maiden by 5 lengths two races ago and then came right back at this level to finish second by 5 ¾ lengths. That was a very good first race against winners and if Winners Get Even can improve off of that, then she figures to be very tough in this. Jockey Mojica is winning at a 23% clip at the meet and trainer Sims is winning at a 29% clip at the meet. She figures to be dangerous.

Ectonia - - 8/1 morning line

Some of her competition looks to be tough in this but none of her competition will be able to take her on early in this race. She can do whatever she wants on the front end, hasn’t finished worse than second in three lifetime races, and comes form the underrated Eric Reed barn. There’s a lot to like about this front runner on the lawn.

Congruent - - 10/1 morning line

She broke her maiden first time asking by 1 ¼ lengths and figures to improve off of that as this will be her second lifetime race. Betting on a first time against winners horse is always difficult to do, but her breeding suggests that she loves the turf and Randy Preston is a classic soft baller trainer with 1 victory, Congruent, and 1 third place finisher out of 4 starters at this meet.

Wagering Strategy

I like Winners Get Even and will bet her to win and place. I will also put Winners Get Even, Congruent and Ectonia into an exacta and trifecta box.
