The Gardens Race 3 - Better Than Lego 1-2 Win
SHUT THE GATE (2) has recorded back to back wins, last time scoring at Taree Super Track over 300m by 4 lengths (17.07). Her last run is a proven strong form reference. In sparkling form and looks the one to beat again. HEY ZIPPER (6) has been in super consistent form recently with two minors on end before missing the frame latest finishing fourth (22.60) at Gosford. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. ZIPPING SWOOPES (1) comes off an average effort last start when sixth at this track over 515m behind Nangar Chick (30.56) in a Grade 5. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. PRINCESS DOCKER (3) has hardly put a foot wrong of late and will be competitive again.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage sixth last time out over 400m at this track. Hard to entertain this time.

Found some support last start but struggled and finished 4th over 388m at Gosford beaten 6 lengths (22.60) behind Screaming Demon in a Grade 5 on September 29. Placed two back at this track. Rates highly on best form. Expected to feature.

Eye-catching performance tracking the speed and going on to score by 3.5 lengths in a Maiden last start at Richmond, recording a dynamic 18.08 over the 320m journey. Harder here but will be in this for a long way.
