The Gardens Race 5

Minmi Hotel

Stake: -

DAISY'S CHARM (8) finished well back at this track last time when a 7 length fifth (30.23) but recorded best time of the card when winning five back. Solid beginner and with a good start should have clear running out wide. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. MIDNIGHT MAN (1) stalked the lead after a clean break from the tricky draw and went on to finish second (23.14) at this track in a Grade 5 over 400m. Good beginner assisted by the inside draw. Leading chance. HI LO RAIN (4) is a smart beginner who has shown good improvement at her last two starts, the latest scoring at this track over 400m. Safe beginner but has a tricky box to overcome. Has definite claims. BARSANDO (2) is not to be discarded.

Comments

Flew the lids with a fast early split but had to contend with second when clocking 23.14 over 400m at this track. In the money last time and looks well placed to go one better.

Did a good job two starts back at this track to win by 0.8 lengths in 23.20, beating Starlight Duke. Last start finished 5th in a Grade 5 on July 26 over 515m at this track behind My Bread Roll beaten 11 lengths (30.39). Solid claims this line-up.

Was out of placings last time (30.23) at this track in a Grade 4/5, finishing fifth and beaten 7 lengths. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed three times. Looks suited and should go close.
