The Gardens Race 9 - Tg Ladbrokes Popular Srm 8-15

MY OCTAVIUS (2) showed little early speed at his last couple, the latest finishing fourth (30.57) in a Grade 5 at this track. Has a good record here at this journey. Strong form has emerged from his last run. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. ZIPPING GRESSIER (8) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing fifth (23.64) in a Grade 4/5 at this track. Solid record at the distance winning five races. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. MINECRAFT FUSION (1) has a moderate overall strike-rate. Better run when finding the frame last time though, finishing second (23.37) at this track. Safe beginner who draws ideally on the inside. Leading player again. LAST KEY (3) picked up a cheque over this course and distance most recently - in the mix again.
