The Gardens Race 7 - Ladbrokes Popular Srm
FEDERAL PLAYER (7) is progressing well scoring last time out (22.27) at this track and bringing up his 15th career win. Is yet to taste defeat at this course and distance. Great chance to get the job done again. ZIPPING VIVID (8) goes very well this course and distance starting six times for three wins and two minors. Missed the frame latest (22.56) when fourth over 400m at Maitland in a NG. Looks suited here and can measure up. DIVA'S DELIGHT (1) has been in sparkling form scoring back to back wins, the latest by 1.5 lengths (15.84) over 272m at this track. One of the prime contenders. DAPHNE ZACAPA (2) cannot be written off despite a miss here at her latest outing.

Missed the frame last time when sixth (23.47) at this track. Prior to that had been racing well. Has a low draw but needs to bounce back.

Good effort to win last start by 0.8 lengths over 400m at this track in a handy (23.42), beating Fascinate Jess. Will find this a bit tougher, looks up against it this time.
