The Gardens Race 9

The Braydos Murphos Invitational

Prize Money: $2,335

ZIPPING OSAKA (2) made an eye-catching debut when charged out of the inside draw with a fast early sectional and clocking 23.02 in a 7 length win at this track over 400m. Exciting type and looks a top chance again. DRINK TO THAT (5) is in consistent form, jumping from this same box when a 1.5 lengths second in a Grade 5 at this track and making it back to back minors. Worth another try. MORE DRAMA (8) was strongly fancied to break through last time and justified the confidence with a maiden win at Maitland over 400m (22.90). Will break from a wide draw. Rates a leading chance again. ALFIE'S GIRL (1) is not to be discarded.

Showed good early speed on debut. Won easily by 7 lengths at this track (23.02) beating Raven Fly in a Maiden on June 19. Will find this much tougher but she's got good box manners and speed. Returned in winning form and can go on with it.

In the money last time at this track (23.34) in a Grade 5, finishing a 1.5 lengths second. Goes well out of this box with a win and two minors. Looks suited here and rates a leading chance.
