Horseshoe Indianapolis Picks & Predictions — June 10, 2026

I Conduit (5) is right behind at 81.27 and comes in as the third choice at 3/1 — a strong place contender with legitimate win upside. Trainer Aaron M. West sends Fernando De La Cruz to the gate, and the average speed figure of 56 is the highest in this field, suggesting raw pace ability. If the pace scenario sets up for a closer, I Conduit's speed figures make her a dangerous place ticket.

Ship Serve (2) is the morning-line favorite at 9/5 and rates third on our model at 77.58, so calling her a 'show' pick doesn't mean she can't win — it reflects that our top two horses grade slightly above her. Trainer Michael J. Maker has a strong reputation for getting maiden runners ready, and the average speed figure of 57 is actually the best in the field. She's a must-use in exotics even if we're fading her at the window as a single.

Crickenberger (4) rates second in the field at 67.24 and comes in as the morning-line second choice at 5/2, so the public is at least partially aligned here. A 14% career win rate is modest, but Emmanuel Esquivel is an active rider who knows this circuit, and trainer Cipriano Contreras keeps the horse competitive in claiming ranks. He's a reliable place anchor in a race where the top of the betting might not represent the best value.

Beach Dancer (11) is a fascinating show option at 60.88 on our ratings and 10/1 morning line — she's the only horse in this field with a 41% career win rate, which stands out dramatically against the field. Trainer Tim Eggleston puts Mitchell Murrill up, one of the better jockeys on the Horseshoe Indianapolis circuit. That win percentage in a claiming race demands respect, and she's a strong candidate to hit the board even if our model puts two horses above her today.

Gunzo (2) is right behind at 79.06 and also sits at 8/1 on the morning line, making the win-place exacta between these two potentially very lucrative. Trainer Dawn Martin deploys Fernando De La Cruz, and Gunzo's 25% career win rate mirrors Silver Syon's. The average speed figure of 54 is slightly behind but not meaningfully so — this horse is live all the way.

Imminent Forecast (4) rounds out the top three at 78.72 — just a hair below our top two — and is posted as the morning-line second choice at 5/2. Trainer John Haran keeps Jose Ramos Gutierrez aboard, and the average speed figure of 55 ties for tops in the field. The public likes this one, and while we see a slight rating edge for the 8/1 horses, Imminent Forecast is a legitimate show anchor and could easily overturn our top two.

Jogger (10) is a fascinating place play at 82.71 on our model despite going off at 6/1 morning line. The gap between Jogger and the third-rated horse Si O Si is nearly four full rating points, meaning Jogger has a clear claim to the runner-up spot. Trainer Michael E. Lauer saddles this one with Santo Sanjur, and if Party in the Club handles the favorite's burden, Jogger should be right there for second money.

Si O Si (3) rates third in the field at 78.41 and is posted at 3/1, making the public fairly aligned with our model here. Trainer Randy Matthews has Joseph C. Bealmear in the irons, and the average speed figure of 52 is respectable for this longer maiden distance. As the third-best horse in a race with a clear top two, Si O Si is a logical show and trifecta anchor — just don't expect to get rich on the show payoff at 3/1.

Prayer Unbridled (8) is the morning-line second choice at 7/2 and backs that up with a 71.95 rating and a 25% career win rate. Trainer Terry Phillips teams with Joseph D. Ramos, and the average speed figure of 53 suggests she'll be competitive throughout. She's a reliable second option who could easily flip the order with our win pick, so consider using both on top in exactas.

Eltinge (6) is a sneaky show pick at 12/1 morning line with a 70.36 rating — third-best in this stakes field. Trainer John L. Langemeier deploys Marcelino Pedroza, Jr., and Eltinge's 20% career win rate is solid for stakes company. At 12/1, the potential trifecta return with our top two would be substantial, and the rating supports genuine board contention.

Socorro's Prayer (4) rates second in this field at 75.55 and hits the board with a 16% career win rate — modest, but she shows up at a 6/1 morning line with the second-best figures in the race. Trainer John Haran puts Alberto Burgos in the irons, and the average speed figure of 55 matches the top figures in the field. She's our preferred place and exacta partner underneath the favorite.

Fools Jester (3) rates third at 75.19, just a fraction behind Socorro's Prayer, and brings a 50% career win rate to this stakes field — that's an eye-catching number. Trainer John Haran also has Socorro's Prayer, so he's running a two-horse barn stable entry effectively, and Jose Ramos Gutierrez rides Fools Jester. At 8/1 on the morning line, the potential show and trifecta value makes this a worthwhile inclusion in your tickets.

Cartels Kool Snow (7) rates second at 56.67 and is posted at 3/1, making this a logical place ticket at a price that could return some value. Trainer Tim Eggleston is an interesting note here — he saddles both Cartels Kool Snow and the win pick Favorite Kiss 43, splitting his barn in this race. A trainer who enters two horses often knows which one he likes more, so keep that in mind, but both deserve to be on your ticket.

Go Little Jess (1) rounds out our top three at 55.83 and is listed at 7/2 on the morning line under trainer Shawna Martin, who also saddles R Different Option. Jockey Cristian Penaloza gets the call, and in a race this short, gate position and rider experience matter enormously. The rating is right there with the top two, and Go Little Jess is a solid show anchor for trifecta players willing to key the top two and use her underneath.
