The Gardens Race 3 - Happy Birthday Elise 1-3 Win

HEY ZIPPER (2) filled a minor placing last start at Gosford behind Fugenzo (22.36) in a Grade 5. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Although beaten ran one of the quickest times on the card last start. Key chance in this line up. WHAT'S THE STORY (5) lit up the clock in 22.76 when winning a Grade 5 over 400m at this track last start. Has the ability and can measure up again. HOT WORK (1) failed to feature last start after drifting back at Gosford, but prior to that won by one length at this track (23.36) beating IMPERATOR in a Grade 5 on July 10. Likely to be thereabouts. BUSHLAND BOY (8) can improve on an unplaced run here last time out.

Suited by inside box. Latest effort finished 5th in a Grade 5 on July 14 over 388m at Gosford behind Trunkey Mick beaten 7 lengths (23.09). Leading chance who should prove hard to beat.

Showed strong pace early but found one better when a 2.5 lengths second over 388m Gosford in 22.36. Although unsuccessful last time still ran one of the quickest times on the card. Stick with her.
