Horsham Race 2 - West Side Cafe Trot
JUST ABIT DUSTY (7) went well to finish third two starts ago then registered a commanding victory last time out, scoring by 8 metres over 2200m at Ballarat. The driver has some work to do from this wide starting position but he can certainly make it two on the bounce. BOUTIKA (3) filled a minor placing at Charlton two runs ago before finishing eighth at her latest appearance over 2190m at Maryborough. Has the benefit of a good draw and she can give this a mighty shake. NIGHT WHISPERER (1) has to come into calculations on the back of some strong recent form, most recently when fourth at Bendigo over 2150m. Must be included. OLD VILLA BOY (4) is worth some thought after his last-start fourth over 2100m at Geelong on December 6.
