Dubbo Race 5 - Picton Bros Panelspan Waratah Heat
BEANCOUNTER (7) attempts another Waratah series after he missed by just a head in a Bathurst heat two back before a 1.4m second in the final at Menangle last week. Won't spend a penny from this draw and if he gets the gaps he could break through. RONZEL SONNY (1) comes here after making up plenty of ground from a back row draw to get the prize by 1.7 metres at his latest appearance at Bathurst. Up in grade so must raise the bar but he is well served by the ace draw. FIRESTORM RED (8) will relish the return to a venue where he has won five of eight visits including all four attempts over this distance. JEWEL HEAVEN (6) draws wide but is racing well so can measure up with even luck.

Last start failed to make any headway until the straight; raced back and made ground from the turn; won by 1.75 m (Sr1) at Bathurst (2:03.60) beating Riviere in on July 1 at $4.33 at the bell was 8th-11.76. Drawn favourably and expected to be in the finish again.

Eight-year-old gelding showed improvement last start and is backing up after a couple of days. 3rd (Fr1) over 1730m after showing early pace at Bathurst beaten 4 m by Mclean (2:02.50) on July 8 at $10. The run before was not as impressive when well beaten into tenth behind Runkle at Bathurst over 2260m on July 1 at $19. Might find this beyond him.

Failed to impress last start; was driven from back in the field when 6th (Fr10) over 1609m at Menangle, beaten 8 m by Bling The Kash (1:53.80) on July 4 at $12. Showed ability the outing before when she tracked on the speed and boxed on steadily; won by 2 m (Sr1) at Parkes (2:02.60) beating Always Adorned in 4yo+ on June 21 at $5.50 at the bell was 2nd-0.8. Player on best form.

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind Donnie Mac at Riverina Paceway over 1740m in a 4yo+ on June 26 at $41. Then a handy effort when beaten by 2 m finishing second after showing early speed, behind Little Sassy Boy at Riverina Paceway over 1740m on July 3 at $5. Can improve. Form sound and can play a role.

Not far away at the last couple starts; Finished 1.4 m second behind Bling The Kash at Menangle over 1609m last start. Before that was beaten a head second at Bathurst over 1730m in 4yo+ on June 24. Close to another win.

Recent efforts haven't been up to his best. Backing up quickly after was well back in the run when 9th (Fr5) over 2260m at Bathurst beaten 15 m by A True Love (2:45.10) on July 8 at $26. At the previous start 7th (Sr2) over 1730m at Bathurst was 6th-9 at the bell, beaten 14 m by Ideal Timing (2:03.00) on July 1 at $6.50. Better placed.

Racing consistently. Last start posted a big 4 m win as favourite after showing early speed, (Fr4) at Riverina Paceway (2:03.70) beating Titiwha in on June 30 at $2.70 at the bell was leading 4.8. Among the chances.
