Horsham Race 3 - On-Site Engineering
GROOT BALE (2) was prominent throughout when an impressive winner two back but could manage only midfield last time when finished 4th and beaten 5 lengths at this track (23.56). Has winning claims on his best figures. PAW LONNIE (3) hit the ground running with a slick early sectional but had to settle for a minor placing when a 2.75 lengths third over 400m at Geelong, clocking 22.88. Comes through a solid form race last start. Expected to be in the finish again. MUG SCIENCE (6) jumped favourite and was too quick with an all-the-way win last start (23.71) at this track in a Maiden over 410m. One of the leading chances again. FUNKY KONG (8) placed last time and cannot be ignored.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage fourth last time out over 390m at Shepparton. Will be tested in this company.

Charged out of the boxes with a fast early sectional but gathered in and finished in the minors when third (22.88) at Geelong over 400m. Some good form is emerging from that last run. Expected to prove hard to beat.

Has hit the frame at his last three runs, the latest finishing third at big odds in 23.84 at this track. Drawn awkwardly. Others preferred.

Showed good early speed on debut. Won comfortably by 3.5 lengths at this track (23.71) beating Silken Kennedy in a Maiden on June 30. Will find this much tougher but he's got good box manners and speed. Has hit winning form and can go on with it.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage seventh last time out over 350m at Healesville. Would be better placed in something easier.

Good effort at double-figure odds last time when third (23.78) over 410m at this track. Wide draw here. Must be included.
