The Gardens Race 8

Ladbrokes Odds Surge

Stake: $2,867

LIKEABLE ROGUE (2) is a quick beginner who bombed the start last time and missed the frame, finishing fourth (23.59) in a NG at this track. Hit the ground running and placed (23.59) at this track the start prior. Has ability and can bounce back. MARCUS FIRE (8) could not have been more impressive last start in his handy 22.28 win at Gosford in a NG over 388m. Harder here but will be in this for a long way. MOLLY ON FIRE (5) was safely held last time out, finishing sixth at this track over 400m behind Frisky Felon (23.67) in a NG. Has performed well from this box with a win and four minor placings to her name from seven starts. One of the better hopes. WILSON'S PICK (4) cannot be left out over a shorter distance.

Last couple of starts have been ordinary but she does have good record over this track and distance. Is a danger.

Hasn't produced too much recently, and faces tougher opposition here. Not going well enough to figure in this.

Has won his last two. Good effort to score just four days ago over 388m at Gosford by 8 lengths in a NG. Form strong and a huge chance to register the hat-trick.
