Horsham Race 1 - Bet365 Mdn Plate
DENIAL (5) wasn't issued any favours at the barrier draw, but looks to have a class edge over his rivals as a four-length fifth to Stakes performer Tropicus last preparation suggests. The first-up run was adequate for a race of this quality and the extra 100m shouldn't be an issue. AUGUST BONUS (4) had a habit of running fourth last campaign but most of those races appeared to have a little more depth than this. QUEEN CALANTHE (8), as a 16-start maiden, has had her fair share of chances but has placed on six occasions and will be in the firing line if she runs up to her best. VORES (9) did nothing on debut but has trialled up well for the new stable. BLACK CHERRY (13) hasn't featured in two runs back but will find this more to her liking.

First starter by Dark Valley out of Ocean Booty. Has a total of two trials leading in today's debut. Hasn't set the world on fire at the jumpouts, so prefer to watch.

Resuming off seven months break after having had one race start. At debut last start 9th of 11 at Ballarat Mdn-Sw on September 20 over 1200m, on a slow track; 8 len behind Big Swinger carrying 57.5kg at $26. Had three recent trials to get fit for this. Last trial Was second in a 800m barrier trial on April 14 at Terang. Encouraging signs in recent jumpouts, so improved run expected
