The Gardens Race 11 - Thedogs.com.au
WHISKY BENT (2) has a strong overall record having four wins and nine places from 16 starts including a last start third (23.44) over 400m at this track. Form here sound including three wins. Has the ability and looks a key chance this line-up. IMPERATOR (1) has been hard to follow lately, running fourth (23.49) last time but prior to that ran very well when placed at this track. Safe beginner and drawn well on the inside. Can turn it around this time. DRINK TO THAT (5) box seated before sticking on well to finish 7 lengths away in third (23.11) at this track in a Grade 5 over 400m. Expected to feature again. BLUE LEGEND (6) placed two back in a Grade 5 at Taree Super Track then backed that up with a second (23.62) over 400m at this track last time. Good beginner but will need a little luck from a tricky draw.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (23.49) in a Grade 5, finishing a 13 length fourth. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed three times. Looks a key chance on best form.

Got back last start and could only manage sixth but before that won easily by 4 lengths at Taree Super Track (17.54) beating Federal Mercury in a Grade 5 on June 10. Risky starter, looks tested in this company.

Most recent effort finished last on June 16 over 388m at Gosford behind Jonesy Revenge beaten 8 lengths (22.99) in a Grade 5. Should show more than the latest offering. Has claims.
