Gawler Race 10

Market In The Gardens Stake Pr2 Division1

Stake: $1,144

MY RUSTY HALO (8) comes off an average effort last start when seventh at Angle Park over 530m behind Mitzi Rocks (31.13) in a Grade 5. Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings three times from six starts. Has ability and is a key runner. ASTON CAPONE (2) flew the lids from out wide with an impressive turn of foot before finishing second (22.78) and beaten 1.75 lengths over 400m at this track. Ran one of the fastest times on the program last start despite finishing in the minors. Expected to feature again. LONG GULLY SHACK (6) was a last-start winner from box one at this track and distance (22.69), scoring by 2.5 lengths. Should be in this for a long way. YVONNE'S PICK (4) is right in the mix.

Won two starts back when well in the market at this track over 400m. Last start finished 2nd on March 26 over 400m at this track behind Hunker Down beaten 1.75 lengths (22.78) in a OPEN. Should prove hard to beat.

Solid performance to win by 2.5 lengths at this track over 400m (22.69) beating Chewdini in Grade 5 on March 26. Recorded two placings in a row before he was rewarded with a win last time. Expected to run well again.

Comments

Hasn't threatened at her last couple but she does have good record over this track and distance. Below best last time but looks well placed here. Deserves another chance.
