The Gardens Race 4

The Shorty Hotel 1-2 Win

Prize Money: $2,335

NOVOCASTRIAN (6) jumps from box 6 again after placing (22.74) last time at Gosford over 388m. Expected to feature again. OTTO MANN (4) showed little early speed at his last couple, the latest finishing eighth (26.27) in a Grade 5 at Maitland. Solid beginner who can clear the tricky draw. Has ability and a bold showing is expected. ARCANE LEGEND (8) had been racing in honest fashion recording two placings in a row before finishing fifth (30.09) at Gosford latest. Goes very well here at the trip finding the frame in each of three starts. Can measure up this time. NO PEAS PLEASE (2) is worth including.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage fifth last time out over 400m at this track. Tempted to look elsewhere.

Could only manage fifth last time but placed two on end prior to that, the latest at double-figure odds when second (30.06) over 515m at this track. Has to overcome a wide draw and will need the breaks to go her way.
