The Gardens Race 4 - Robert Smith Maiden Heats Feb 7

MAKE YOUR STAND (2) recorded a 5 length second in a Grade 4/5 last time 30.04 at this track and trip and also jumping from the same draw. Rates on top in this line up. ZIPPING VIPER (8) missed the frame latest when fifth at this track (30.30) but was a winner three back in the best time of the program. Has a good record here at this journey. The form from his last run stacks up well. Has ability and can measure up. HANK MCCOY (4) jumped cleanly from the rails to lead much the way when second (22.78) at Maitland in a Grade 4/5 over 400m. Winning chance. SHERRY NOT BERRY (1) can find the frame without surprising.

Fast starter. Last start finished seventh on December 27 over 515m at this track behind Elizabeth Fire, beaten 17 lengths (30.41) in a Grade 4/5. Doesn't look smart enough to threaten the top few.
