The Gardens Race 3 - Happy Birthday Shearer 1-2 Win
GYPSY IBROX (4) was speedy out of box 2 on debut to score by 7 lengths (29.21) at this track over 515m. Should be in this for a long way. GRAND FORTE (1) showed little early speed at his last couple, the latest finishing fourth (30.22) in a Grade 5 at Gosford. Should be about the money. BURGLAR TOM (3) was below best last time when fifth at Gosford but prior to that among the placings in quick time (29.78) at this track. Expected to bounce back to best. ZIPPING ALONSO (2) is in the mix despite finishing out of the placings here last start.

Lines up from box 2 for the first time after finishing a 6 length sixth at this track (30.17) in a Grade 5. Looks one of the chances.

Missed the frame latest (30.45) when fifth over 515m at Gosford in a Grade 5. Has never missed the frame from three starts from the draw, including a win. Suited here and expected to run well.

Showed good early speed on debut. Won easily by 7 lengths at this track (29.21) beating Zipper Moon in a Maiden on May 22. Will find this much tougher but she's got good box manners and speed. Returned in great order and can make it two on the bounce.

Found the going tougher last start when second over 388m at Gosford. That followed a win two back in 17.93 beating Anjo Statue over 324m at Richmond Straight. Prepared to risk on this occasion.
