The Gardens Race 8 - Ladbrokes Big Bets Copy Now
BLACK TIARA (3) produced a moderate effort last time when fifth at Nowra over 520m behind Gloria Keeping (30.48) in a Grade 4/5. Better than last start and worth following up. DOLLAR ROLEX (1) was sent out long odds last time but charged out of the boxes with a fast early sectional and gave a sight before being swallowed up late, finishing a 2.5 lengths fourth (22.59) over 388m at Gosford. Likely to be thereabouts. DRINK TWISTIES (4) boasts a strong record this course with four wins and two minors from 11 tries. Was out of placings last time (29.96) at this track in a Grade 5, finishing fourth and beaten 6 lengths. Makes strong appeal on best. MAJOR FORTE (7) can sneak into the finish.
