Casino Race 7 - Charcoal Inn
WESTERN LIES (8) could not have been more impressive last start in his dazzling 19.68 win at Grafton over 350m. Expected to go close again if runs up to latest time. KINGSBRAE REX (6) shapes well after a quick run last time, finishing third in a NG at Grafton in 19.93. This is tougher but expected to be in the finish. TRICKY MICKY (7) goes very well this course and distance starting six times for two wins and three minors. Comes off a (23.37) win last time, scoring by 1.5 lengths in a Grade 4/5 over 411m at this track. Looks a key chance on best figures. HERE COMES DYLAN (2) was below best last time at this track (17.82) in a NG, finishing a 15 length eighth. Has three wins already from this draw.

Had been in consistent form with three minors on end before missing the frame last start when sixth (23.96) at this track. Has a decent record when drawn the inside but needs to find best form to feature.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (17.82) in a NG, finishing a 15 length eighth. Box stats strong with three wins and two placings from six starts. Looks suited here and can measure up on best.

Good effort to win last start by 2.25 lengths over 411m at this track in a handy (23.51), beating Last Rupee. Will find this a bit tougher, others have better credentials.

Was a little disappointing last start, fading in the run home at this track over 300m. The start prior was at his best with a neck win over 300m at this track. Can't recommend against this lot.

Hit the frame at Grafton last time when a 3.5 lengths third but did record a hot 19.93 for the 350m trip. Has the ability and expected to go close again.

Eye-catching performance to score by 1.75 lengths in a NG last start at Grafton, recording a lightning 19.68 for the 350m journey. Hard to top on that run.
