Jungle Panther – triumphant in three of his last four races – lines up against the consistent Alfie Alligator, G3 runner-up Red Reactor and Sandown Park 29.24 winner Cybertruck in a Grade 5 485m final at Horsham this afternoon.

West Song is aiming to stretch her winning streak to five races in a 410m Free For All, but Ertugrul Bey and Lektra Sammy must be respected.

G2 Shepparton Cup finalist Dynamic Prince stands out in a Mixed 4/5 460m event at Warragul tonight, while G3 Launching Pad finalist Aston Komuni headlines a Restricted Win 460m final.

The classy Disorientated highlights a 400m Free For All, while Bernadette v Propelled v Nevaeh Bale v Ferocious Rust and Shake And Treble v Rufiano should be great clashes.

The Watchdog says ? : AGENT MEATBALL (1) didn’t have a lot of luck in his first prep in Tassie and he recently sizzled in a trial at Warrnambool, so from the inside draw, he is expected to lead throughout. DYNAMIC PRINCE (8) is ideally drawn out wide and he can light them up soon after box rise, while the promising HONESTLY TWO (1) should prove too classy for her rivals.

Grade 5 Final

? Horsham ? Race 8
? 485m ⏱ 5:42pm

The Watchdog says ?: JUNGLE PANTHER (8) has the ideal draw, and a repeat of last Tuesday’s run should see him score again. CYBERTRUCK (7) is a jet, and he should be in the top two for most of the trip. Group 3 runner-up RED REACTOR (5) is the logical choice for third, however we have gone wider in the hope of securing some value.

‘Must Watch Race’ Preview ?:

The exciting JUNGLE PANTHER (8) is drawn to take a power of beating. He exited the same draw last Tuesday and after a good getaway, he never really looked back before carving out a breathtaking 26.83sec when winning his heat. CYBERTRUCK (7) is another potential star and is the obvious danger. He assumed control soon after box rise before winning his heat in 27.11sec and after seeing the track for the first time, I think he is capable of getting well under the 27-second barrier. RED REACTOR (5) has some scorching wins at The Meadows to his credit and although beaten last Tuesday, he was far from disgraced. ALFIE ALLIGATOR (1) is as honest as they come, while the ultra-consistent MANILA DUSK (3) can play a major role.
