The Gardens Race 3

Ladbrokes Odds Surge

Stake: $2,541

DOUBLE POLKA (7) produced a moderate effort last time when seventh at this track over 515m behind Quick Biscuit (30.50) in a Grade 4/5. Safe beginner but wide box to overcome and will need some luck. Rates on top in this line up. SOLAR RUSH (3) struggled for best form latest, finishing 8th (23.65) in a Grade 4/5 at this track. Form here at this distance is strong including six wins. The form out of his last race has been franked. Has ability and can atone. BABY BLOSSOM (8) missed the frame and was safely held latest finishing 7th at Richmond following on from a second place finish (23.02) there the start prior. Has a strong winning record here at this journey. The form from her last run stacks up well. Leading chance. FLYING AVENUE (1) is worth including after a top-three finish at this track and distance most recently.

Improved sharply when second behind Salem Sweetheart at this track last start over 400m (23.29). Gets back so might need a bit of luck.

Was out of the placings last time but the start prior finished in the minors when third (23.33) at big odds over 400m at this track. Has a low draw and is among the better hopes.

Hit the frame latest (23.33) when third at this track in a Grade 5. Goes very well from the draw boasting two places from four starts. Will need some luck to feature.

Did a good job two starts back at this track to win by 0.8 lengths in 23.27, beating Trixie Bella. Last start finished last in a Grade 5 on April 12 over 400m at this track behind Maserati Avenue beaten 11 lengths (23.82). Can't enthuse on this occasion.

Didn't finish two back and couldn't make the frame last time when she finished 7th on April 11 over 515m at this track behind Quick Biscuit beaten 13 lengths (30.50) in a Grade 4/5. Solid beginner who will take catching from out wide.

Was out of placings last time (18.76) at Richmond in a Grade 4/5, finishing seventh and beaten 9 lengths. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and two minors. Leading chance.
