Horsham Race 12

One More Race To Go

Prize Money: $2,925

BLANKET GAME (1) put in a much better performance last start when in the placings at this track behind Paw Lester (23.97) in a Grade 5. Settled off speed and worked to the line nicely. The form from his last run stacks up well. Expected to feature in the finish again. DRAX BALE (2) has a fair record and proved too classy last time to win by 0.7 lengths at this track in a handy 23.64 beating Artemis Science. One of the leading chances again. PERFECT TONIGHT (8) has been mixing form lately, hitting the frame two back before finishing fourth (22.57) at Warrnambool in a Grade 5. Can feature with the right run. LEKTRA ROGER (7) is in the mix despite missing out at this track last time.

In the money last time at this track (23.97) in a Grade 5, finishing a 5 length third. Yet to miss the frame from four starts from the draw, including two wins. With a clean break looks hard to beat.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at Warrnambool over 390m in 22.30. Followed that up with a minor placing over 425m at Bendigo at Grade 5 three days ago. Scored two on the trot prior to last start. Can return to winning form.

Got back last start and could only manage sixth but before that won by 1.3 lengths at Ballarat (22.46) beating Bragging Rights in a Grade 5 on August 15. Look for improvement. Not out of it.
