07 December 2025 | Ryan Phelan

Horsham 7/12

R1 – 1:49pm – Shelton & Lane Stationary Pace - 2200m

8 – Insider Trading

3 – Alook To Like

5 – Chalkncheddar

1 – Oscar Bravo

Strategy:

Insider Trading finds a very suitable assignment to return to the winners list. The trailing draw gives Kerryn Manning options to settle close enough to strike, and on his best figures he can prove too strong over the final stages.

BACK: 8 Insider Trading – 3 Units (win)

 

R2 – 2:24pm – Horsham Doo & Glass Trot – 1700m 

11 – Manda Kyvalley

8 – Snickers Express

5 – Frankythefrenchman

10 – Champagnes

 

R3 – 2:59pm – Locks Constructions icbred Voucher Maiden Pace – 1700m 

8 – Happenstababeachboy

1 – Colorado Girl

3 – Theroux

2 – Royal Rockstar

 

R4 – 3:34pm – Speeding Spur @ Woodlands Stud Horsham Trotters Cup – 2700m 

10 – Aldebaran Brooke

4 – Faith Full

7 – El Conqueror

9 – I Dream Of Millie

Strategy:

Aldebaran Brooke returns to the standing start conditions under which she performed admirably back in July. Her recent runs have been solid despite tackling stronger company, and this shapes as a far more suitable contest.

BACK: 10 Aldebaran Brooke – 2 Units (win)

 

R5 – 4:09pm – Wimmera Aquatrail Pace – 2200m 

8 – Into The Harkness

1 – Feelingoodfreddie

5 – Nothing Sweeter

10 – Torque Power

 

R6 – 4:45pm – Samios Plumbing Supplies Horsham Pace Final – 1700m 

8 – Caruso Star

13 – Elite Molly

6 – Swiss Lightning

1 – Hilldale Sunrise

Strategy:

Caruso Star was an authoritative heat winner when rolling to the lead and running his rivals into the ground. He moves to the back row here but follows out good early speed and gets a soft peg run. With the right luck and tempo, he will be winding up late.

BACK: 8 Caruso Star – 2 Units (win)

 

R7 – 5:25pm – West Side Horsham Pace Final – 1700m 

9 – Eastbro Kozzy

12 – Grinning Beach Boy

7 – Jilliby Kymy Lou

3 – Lewielewis

 

R8 – 5:54pm – The Weekly Advertiser Horsham Pacing Cup – 2200m 

10 – Operative Line

9 – Dhaulagiri

8 – Little Louie

7 – Sweetpassion

Strategy:

Operative Line is a high-quality pacer resuming and strikes an ideal race fresh. He has a strong record at this track, and last campaign regularly competed against superior opposition in town. If he returns anywhere near his peak, he will take plenty of holding out.

BACK: 10 Operative Line – 3 Units (win)

 

R9 – 6:23pm – Traction AG Owner For A Day Pace – 1700m 

10 – Browniesatmidnight

3 – All Blazing Guns

7 – Steel The Moment

5 – Wild Bull

 

QUADDIE (Races 5-8)
