The Gardens Race 4

Grnsw Middle Distance Series

Stake: $10,954

ROYAL RUSH (4) is a handy type who was well below best latest at this track, finishing fourth (34.93) in a NG. Generally fast into stride but was shuffled back from the tricky draw last time. Has a strong winning record here at this journey. Has a strong record from box 4, including five wins. Key runner on her best form. SUBLIME ETHICS (5) is mixing form, missing the placings latest but was a winner three back and returns to 600m this time where she has performed well. Has the ability and can find best this time. GARDEN PARTY (1) has some solid form under her belt and proved too classy last time to win by a nose at this track in a handy 34.84 beating WHISKEY COBBLER. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. Makes plenty of appeal if runs up to latest. JOURNEY (2) is always hard to beat when he races here at this trip.

Good performance after racing just off the speed to win by a nose at this track over 600m (34.84) beating Whiskey Cobbler in NG on June 29. Looks the one to beat again.

Found some support last start but struggled and finished 4th over 622m at Richmond beaten 5.5 lengths (36.69) behind Zipping Hedwig in a Mix on June 26. Placed two back at this track. Solid chance with even luck.

Solid performance after tracking the speed to win by 0.8 lengths at Wentworth Park over 520m (30.07) beating Still Available in Grade 5 on June 28. Strongly fancied last time and lived right up to expectations. Stick with her.

Won two starts back when well in the market at this track over 600m. Last start finished 4th on June 29 over 600m at this track behind Garden Party beaten 1.3 lengths (34.93) in a NG. Has been around the mark at her last couple and should make her presence felt.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage fifth last time out over 324m at Richmond Straight. Doesn't look smart enough to threaten the top few.
