Horsham Race 7

Stake: $3,696

MR. BEETS (7) was a (17.33) winner last time out at Mt Gambier from Box 6. Boasts a strong record from this draw with four wins and three minor placings from nine starts. Makes plenty of appeal if runs up to latest. GAS LANTERN (8) flew the lids off the inside draw with a fast early split and gave a sight, finishing a 5 length second (22.46) over 390m at Ballarat. Solid formlines coming through her last run. Must be included in calculations. CORTEZ BALE (3) won again and recorded an impressive time after running them ragged to make it two on the bounce, scoring at this track over 410m (23.36). Winner at his latest appearance in one of the quickest times on the card. Leading chance again. PAW ROXY (4) was in the money last time at Ballarat (25.42) in a Grade 4/5, finishing a one length third. Has four wins already from this draw.

Good effort to win last start by 2 lengths over 425m at Bendigo in a handy (23.88), beating Mia Coco. Will find this a bit tougher, can't recommend against this lot.
