Impressive youngster Rio Hato is favoured to boost her strike rate to eight wins from 12 starts in a 410m Restricted Win final at Horsham this afternoon.
Body Hack – victorious in seven of his last nine races – and the in-form Sinful Angel clash in a 410m Free For All, while the well-travelled Keenando headlines a Mixed 4/5 485m event.
G3 Northern Districts Cup finalist Security Man (13 wins from 26 starts), G2 Laurels finalist Devine Empress (six wins from 10 races) and Zeeba’s Legacy (12 wins from 29 starts) are the standout chasers in their respective races at Warragul tonight.
Litter brothers and kennelmates Archie’s Entity and Joe’s Entity are also expected to enhance their strike rates.

THE WATCHDOG’S $10 INVESTMENT 
Tuesday 22 February
$3 Place – GYARADOS
Must Watch Race
Restricted Win Final
Horsham Race 7 Box 3 410m 4:39pm
TAB fixed odds: $2.90 Place
The Watchdog says 
: GYARADOS (3) caught the eye last Tuesday and he appears drawn to get a nice run through. The inside runners are expected to punch up and lead, so he should get a nice trail and be there to strike turning for home.
‘Must Watch Race’ Preview :
RIO HATO (1) showed enormous potential in her first preparation, and she returned to her brilliant best with a blistering 22.94sec heat win last Tuesday afternoon. She is drawn to lead throughout again, however CURNOW’S BLUES (5) and CHARLOTT’S BLAZE (8) have carved out some slashing wins here of late, so if she happens to make a mistake early, they will be there to capitalise. WATCH THE CLOCK (7) is a talented type but he would have preferred a rails draw, while the speedy GYARADOS (3) caught the eye last Tuesday afternoon and he is capable of causing an upset.

The Watchdog says : BUSY TIME (2) should get a dream run through behind GENERAL PAYTON (1) and he is very strong in the run home, so he should hit the scoreboard. ZEEBA’S LEGACY (8) will find this easier than his most recent racing and he should have no trouble crossing in the early stages.
