The Gardens Race 9 - Bishop Collins
SEMI PEAKIN' (2) recorded a win over 400m at this track in a head turning 22.76 last start. Hard to top on the time from last start. LATE IN ARRIVAL (1) has been in sparkling form scoring back to back wins, the latest by 0.8 lengths (22.71) over 400m at this track. Reliable out of the boxes and should take advantage of the inside draw. Leading chance again. SUDDEN SURPRISE (3) comes off a (22.92) win last time, scoring by 1.3 lengths in a Grade 5 over 400m at this track. Has already won two times from this draw. Suited here and expected to run well. FASCINATE JOHN (5) is always a threat when he races at this track and distance.

Won again in another strong performance after running them ragged recording back-to-back wins at this track over 400m (22.92). Looks suited and should go close again.

Backs up after winning by a nose at this track (23.34) beating Teapot Scandal in a Grade 5 on June 27 six days ago. Likely to find this a lot tougher and he needs to find another gear.

Did a good job two starts back at this track to win by 4.5 lengths in 23.02, beating Skinny Marie. Last start finished 6th on June 26 over 400m at this track behind Lochinvar Grace beaten 10 lengths (23.44) in a Grade 4. Can't enthuse on this occasion.

Missed the frame last time when eighth (30.64) at this track. Prior to that had been racing well. Tough draw to overcome and will need a little luck to feature.

Should get a clear run from the wide draw. Wasn't impressive last start but does have a great record at this track and distance, racing well and has to be included.
