The Gardens Race 9 - Ladbrokes Quick Multi
HOOKED ON JOY (1) was an impressive winner two back but last start drifted back and wound up strongly to finish a 5.5 lengths third at Gosford (22.51). Safe beginner who draws ideally on the inside. Rates highly and will give a great sight. SEMI PEAKIN' (7) boasts a consistent overall record including three wins from 13 starts, the latest winning (22.40) over 400m at Maitland. Has a good overall strike-rate and can find the frame here. RHAPSODY BEAST (4) hasn't been far away, finishing in the money two back at this track then finished on the winners' heels in a Grade 5 at this track last time. Key player on best and worth another try. GARY INDIANA (6) is worth some thought after being close-up last start.

Inside draw could be an advantage. Last start finished fifth over 400m at this track, beaten 3.5 lengths (23.51) behind Zipping Kit Kat in a Grade 5 on February 7. Can't recommend him in this.

Got back last start and could only manage second but before that won by 3 lengths at Taree Super Track (30.83) beating Pacific Tiger in a Grade 5 on January 17. Not far from winner last time but has the job ahead here.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (23.10) in a Grade 5, finishing a 1.75 lengths fourth. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and two minors. Among the main chances.

Good effort at double-figure odds last time when second (17.62) over 300m at Taree Super Track. One of the better hopes.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage fifth last time out over 400m at this track. Prepared to overlook.
