The Gardens Race 10 - Go The Knights
OCCULENT (5) is going well, finishing in the placings twice in a row. Not beaten far last time when a 1.5 lengths second (22.51) in a Grade 5 at Maitland. Key player on best and worth another chance. MAEVE BABY (1) showed blistering pace early and gave a sight when in the minors, beaten 6 lengths over 400m this track in 22.95. Expecting another good run. DURAN QUEEN (2) turned in a better effort at this track last start, finishing third behind Semi Peakin' (23.08) in a Grade 5. Settled off speed and worked to the line nicely. Can measure up. KAELIX COMET (7) has strong credentials from this draw.

Has hit the frame the last couple. Finished second at Maitland latest but prior to that clocked a solid 22.39 over 400m when just missed, at Maitland. Looks the one to beat on run two back.
