The Gardens Race 9 - Book Your Christmas Party With Us
LOCHINVAR GRACE (1) ran below best last time finishing sixth (23.03) over 390m at Ballarat in a T3 Grade 7. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. MY FAIRY BREAD (5) proved too good on debut over 272m at this track to score by 8 lengths (15.86). Should be in this for a long way. BILLY BLINDERS (2) was game in defeat off a low draw at the latest outing, finishing third and beaten 1.5 lengths (23.31) behind Novel at this track. Still to record a win from this draw but has never missed the frame in two starts. Expecting another good run. BERNARDO'S BELLE (3) warrants respect although new to this track.

Won two starts back over 390m at Ballarat. Last start she finished 6th on September 22 over 390m at Ballarat behind Call It Fate beaten 2.75 lengths (23.03) in a T3 Grade 7. Draw likely to suit. Strong form emerging from the that last run. Leading chance.

Settled midfield on debut but made ground. Won comfortably by 8 lengths at this track (15.86) beating Princess Energy in a Maiden on November 22. Will find this much tougher but she's got good box manners and speed. Back in top order and looks the one to beat.
