The Gardens Race 4

Racing Every Weekend In Newcastle

Stake: $2,849

FEED THE METER (8) Ran on strongly to win last time at the track in 15.9s over 272m and has a good draw. Finishes off strongly. In fine form this preparation. Worth an investment. RUNAWAY SAM (4) Was strong late when 2nd last time around here in 16.12s over 272m and solid career start. Has been a model of consistency since resuming from a break. Every chance today. IMOGENE PASS (5) Moved ahead of some to finish 4th last start at this venue. Should be swooping on the field late. Will give a big sight. KARA'S VOGUE (6) Was ordinary when 6th last start around here. Place wouldn't shock.

Started $61.00 and didn't find the line when 8th last start at the track but has drawn to do little work. Down in distance. Most likely not today.

Nice effort to run into 2nd last time at the track in 16.12s over 272m and promising career start. Running with confidence since resuming from a break. Holds a major chance.

At $9.50 showed some merit late when 4th last start around here. Has good finishing speed. Rates as one of the key chances.

Reeled them in when winning last time at the track in 15.9s over 272m and gets a favourable draw. In top racing shape this campaign. Will be motoring home late. Highly respected.
