The Gardens Race 9

Christmas Parties At The Gardens

Prize Money: $2,515

JASPER DARKE (7) is an honest type rarely out of the money, scoring at this track (22.75) last time and making it two straight wins. Form here at the trip sound including 17 wins. Drawn wide but with a clean break will be tough to beat again. BARRAMUNDI LOU (1) put in a much better performance last start when in the placings at this track behind STAR (23.01) in a Grade 4/5. Has the pace to be prominent. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card last start despite being beaten. Expected to be in the finish again. WHISKY BENT (3) finished fourth last time but the start prior broke the clock when winning over 388m at Gosford, taking a Grade 5 in a solid 22.19. Smart winner two back and looks a key chance on that form. STAR (8) comes under notice as a past winner at this course and distance.

Latest effort finished 2nd on October 16 over 400m at this track behind Star beaten 4.5 lengths (23.01) in a Grade 4/5. In the money last time and looks well placed to go one better.

Won two starts back at Gosford over 388m in 22.19. Couldn't repeat the feat last time out when fourth over 388m at Gosford at Grade 4 level. Look for improvement. Not out of it.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (23.37) in a Free For All, finishing a 9 length eighth. Goes very well from the draw boasting two victories and four places from 12 starts. Looks a place chance at best.

Was out of placings last time (23.03) at this track in a Grade 4, finishing fifth and beaten 4.5 lengths. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed five times. Others appear better placed.

Lifted to win two runs back and scored again last start over 400m at this track (22.75,) beating Fascinate Abby. Form strong and a huge chance to register the hat-trick.

Good win last start as odds-on favourite by 4.5 lengths over 400m at this track in a handy 22.72, beating Barramundi Lou. Solid chance with even luck.
