The Gardens Race 6 - The Racecourse Hotel
BARRAMUNDI LOU (6) jumped from a low draw and boxed on well to finish second last time, beaten one length (22.75) behind My Cupcake at this track. Although beaten ran one of the quickest times on the card last start. Rates highly and will give a great sight. ICE ON FIRE (8) was well fancied last time and led throughout to score (20.12) at Grafton in a Grade 4/5 over 350m. Recorded the quickest time on the card last start. Must be included in calculations. SEMI PEAKIN' (2) was in the placings last time but prior to that clocked a quick 22.92 win over 400m at this track. Has the ability and can find winning form again. CHOPPER EXPRESS (4) is always a threat when he races at this track and distance.

Won two starts back at this track over 400m in 22.92. Followed that up with a minor placing over 400m at Maitland at NG five days ago. Has been around the mark of late. Keep safe.

Could manage only fourth last time but impressed the start prior when he clocked a solid 22.92 over 400m finishing third at this track. Can sneak a place again.

Hit the ground running last time with a fast early split and never headed, leading throughout to win by 1.75 lengths (20.12) over 350m at Grafton. Looks the one to beat.
