The Gardens Race 5 - Geoffrey Redden Digital Pix
SPEEDY ZIPPER (4) ran below his best last time finishing fifth (29.63) over 515m at Gosford in a Grade 5. Remains without a win from the draw but has been in the placings two times from four attempts. Looks the one to beat on his best form. SIMPLICITY MAGIC (1) was out of the placings last time when fifth at Taree Super Track (30.46) but did record best time of the card when winning three back. Goes well out of this box with a win and six minor placings. Expected to feature in the finish. FASCINATE SUZIE (6) goes very well at the distance with two wins and a placing from five starts. Hit the frame latest (29.52) when second at Gosford in a Grade 4/5. Looks well placed here and among the chances. ZIPPING RUFFIAN (8) won in the best time of the program last time out. Big chance on that form.

Modest effort last time out when fourth over 600m at this track. Doesn't profile as a likely winner.

Hit the frame at Gosford last time when a one length second but did record a handy 29.52 over the 515m journey. Looks an each way chance again here.

Placed last time (35.26) at this track in a Mix, finishing third and beaten one length. Still a maiden from this draw but has never missed the frame from two starts. Has ability but looking elsewhere this time.
