The Gardens Race 8 - Sires On Ice
COUSIN SAL (7) scored (29.95) last time out at this track adding to an already respectable career. Ran the fastest time on the program in his latest win. Has hit winning form and can go on with it. ELLA KNOWS (2) was out of character last run when missing the frame, finishing sixth (30.80) in a Grade 4/5 at this track. Normally fast to begin but shuffled back last time. Form here at this distance is sound. Won at her only start from this draw. Has ability and a bold showing is expected. PRINCE VINNIE (1) was a (22.53) winner last time out at Maitland from Box 1. Must be included in calculations. FULL TILT TOM (4) was out of the money here last time out but can bounce back.

Did a good job two starts back at this track to win by 3 lengths in 22.94, beating Stock's Gift. Last start finished 6th in a Grade 4/5 on February 20 over 400m at this track behind Blazing Warrior beaten 16 lengths (23.91). Is a danger.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage seventh last time out over 515m at this track. Not up to this.
