The Gardens Race 5

Ladbrokes Thunderbolt Heat 1 F

Prize Money: $2,630

SIGN ACTION (1) has an excellent record over this course and distance having never missed the placings in eight starts, including four wins and four placings. Missed the frame latest (17.94) when fifth over 324m at Richmond Straight in a Grade 3/4. Has the ability and looks a key chance here. BLACK BRONTI (6) has a strong record this track and trip with nine wins and six placings from 21 starts. Below best last time at Gosford (22.63) in a NG, finishing a 6 length fourth. Suited here and expected to run well. STYLISH ROBBO (8) is always a threat when she races at this track and distance.

Has recorded back to back wins. Scored most recently over 300m at Taree Super Track in Grade 5 class three-and-a-half weeks ago. Happy enough to avoid.
