The Gardens Race 11 - Ladbrokes Popular Srm
FEDERAL SENOR (2) is on a hot streak recording a 22.70 win over 400m at this track last start following on from a solid 22.20 victory at Gosford over 388m the start prior. Flying lately and looks hard to top. BURGLAR TOM (1) missed the frame and was safely held latest finishing 6th at Gosford following on from a second place finish (30.06) at this track the start prior. One of the better hopes. DEADLY VENOM (6) had a tough draw to overcome and was game in defeat when only a nose from Major Forte in second (23.59) at this track. Speedy beginner who can find the front despite the tricky draw. Leading chance. LARRIKIN PIONEER (8) was in the money last start and likely to feature again.

Returns from a nine weeks break and only other fresh up run was on debut when placed over 515m at Gosford. Good beginner and should go close off the inside draw.
