The Gardens Race 9

Prize Money: $2,335

WADE'S EDGE (2) showed little early speed at his last couple, the latest finishing eighth (23.66) in a Grade 5 at this track. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and four minor placings to his credit. Looks the one to beat on his best form. MR. SPECKLE (1) has shown good improvement at his last two starts, finishing in the money last time when 2nd at Gosford over 388m. Goes well out of this box with a win and two minor placings. Can measure up. FLYING STRATUS (8) has a strong record this journey here with two wins and a minor from five starts. Below best last time at Wentworth Park (30.47) in a Grade 5, finishing a 7 length sixth. With even luck and a clean start should be thereabouts. KICKER ZOOM (5) collected a minor prize last start over this track and distance - must be considered.

Flew the lids with a fast early split but had to contend with second when clocking 22.57 over 388m at Gosford. Has an outstanding 22.72 best time at this course and distance. Big chance.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (23.66) in a Grade 5, finishing a 16 length eighth. Has performed well off the draw with a win and four places from 10 starts. Expected to be in the finish.

Good effort to win last start by 3 lengths over 300m at Taree Super Track in a handy (17.49), beating Ella Black. Will find this a bit tougher, needs to find a bit more to test these.

Good effort to win last start by 1.5 lengths over 400m at this track in a handy (22.93), beating Daphne Zacapa. Will find this a bit tougher, will not find this easy. Not keen.

Good effort last time when second (23.11) over 400m at this track. Awkward draw to overcome. Solid top-three prospects.

Missed the frame last start when fifth but had been in strong form prior to that, winning two on end before placing two back. Needs to find best and prepared to watch this time.
