The Gardens Race 9 - The Shorty Hotel
SWIPER LANE (3) missed the frame last time but had been racing well prior to that, winning a Grade 5 three back before a placing at this track the following run. Has the ability and looks a key chance here. IMPERATOR (2) has been hard to follow lately, running sixth (23.42) last time but prior to that ran very well when placed at this track. Expected to do much better this time. SEA SURGE (1) missed the frame last time when fifth (23.22) at this track in a Grade 5 but not beaten far the start prior. Expecting sharp improvement this line-up. RHONDA FULL DAY (6) should be thereabouts.

Last start finished 5th in a Grade 5 on June 3 over 300m at Taree Super Track behind Zipping Tanaka beaten 6 lengths (17.93). Capable of improvement on latest effort. Well placed and should feature.

Found some support last start but struggled and finished 6th on May 30 over 400m at this track behind Lakota Courtney beaten 4 lengths (23.42) in a Grade 5. Placed two back at this track. The form out of the last run measures up. Hard to beat.

Missed the frame last start when a 10 length seventh (20.37) at Gunnedah. Previous form sound including a win three back at this track. Rates strongly and can return to winning form.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage fourth last time out over 400m at this track. Can't recommend against this lot.

Good effort at double-figure odds last time when second (23.16) over 400m at this track. Drawn wide. Looking to others.
