The Gardens Race 5 - Sires On Ice
SLIGHTLY PSYCHO (8) has missed the frame at her last two runs but could not have been more impressive the run prior in her convincing 24.78 win at Gunnedah over 431m. Expected to push the clock again here. KAREN STRATUS (6) ran below her best last time finishing seventh (16.52) over 272m at this track in a Grade 4/5. Solid winning record at this trip. Can figure in the finish. YOUNG ENERGY (2) boasts a strong record this journey here with four wins and three minors from 12 tries. Was out of the placings last time (22.66) at Gosford in a NG, finishing sixth and beaten 11 lengths. Looks well placed here and among the chances. FIREBALL NIGHT (3) has top-three aspirations after placing last time.

Well supported here last start but let backers down, finishing finished 7th over 272m at this track beaten 9 lengths (16.52) behind Karli Mulwee in a Grade 4/5 on March 28. Placed two back at Taree Super Track. Around the mark two starts back. Winning chance on that form.

Got back last start and could only manage sixth but before that won by a neck at this track (16.16) beating Big Red Miyagi in a Grade 4/5 on March 13. Others hold stronger claims.
