The Gardens Race 9 - Bishop Collins
MALICIOUS (1) is in top form lately including a swift win at Taree Super Track in 30.32 two back then backing it up with a 30.03 victory at Taree Super Track over 525m latest. Rates a top chance again if runs up to recent form. IRINKA LINDSAY (2) was below best latest but did hit the frame in quick time two back when second (29.55) at this track in a Grade 4/5. Can feature with the right run. MODEST MAN (8) goes very well this trip starting 13 times for five wins and five minors. Was out of placings last time (30.01) at Wentworth Park in a Grade 5, finishing fourth and beaten 3.5 lengths. Looks one of the chances. DAISY'S CHARM (5) was out of the money at this circuit last start but can bounce back.

Missed the frame last time but the start prior clocked a hot 29.55 over 515m finishing second at this track. Should be in this for a long way.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage fourth last time out over 515m at this track. Can't recommend him in this.

Goes well at this track and trip. Latest effort finished 5th over 515m at this track beaten 4 lengths (30.35) behind Ella Knows in a Grade 4/5 on February 13. Has clocked a scorching 29.26 here at this trip. Can give a great sight.

Was out of placings last time (30.59) at Wentworth Park in a Grade 5, finishing seventh and beaten 11 lengths. Has four successes and two minors from 11 starts from box 7. Looks a place chance at best.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at this track over 515m in 29.81. Couldn't repeat the feat last time out when fourth over 520m at Wentworth Park at Grade 5 level. Is a danger.
