The Gardens Race 3 - The Lids Fly Hosted Pots 1-3 Win
PROJECT NEMESIS (2) showed strong early pace and proved too slick around this track over 400m in 22.97, claiming a Maiden by 9 lengths. Form from his last run is proving to be solid. Looks the testing material. HOOKED ON HOPE (4) comes off an average effort last start when fifth at Gosford over 388m behind Imogene Pass (22.92) in a Grade 5. Was in the money prior to that. Good beginner but will need a little luck from a middle draw. Better than last start and can bounce back. CHUTZPAH (1) clocked a new course and distance PB last time, finishing a 3.5 lengths second behind Bumpy Blue in 23.08. Expected to feature again. DOLLAR ROLEX (3) was in the money again last time and not beaten far when second (22.48) at Gosford in a Grade 5.

Showed strong pace early but found one better when a 3.5 lengths second over 400m this track in 23.08. With a good start can take advantage of the low draw.

Put a space on them to win by 9 lengths at this track over 400m (22.97) beating Barkley Lane in Maiden on May 2. Some good form is emerging from that last run. Expected to prove hard to beat.

Working his way into winning form after his success on April 18 at this track over 400m. Last start was second over 388m in 22.48, behind Starry Ethics. Has ability and worth including.

Missed the frame latest (23.83) when fifth over 400m at this track in a Grade 5. Has two placings from four starts from the draw. With even luck and a clean start should be thereabouts.
