The Gardens Race 5 - The Racecourse Hotel
MY MONROE (4) has shown good improvement at her last two starts, finishing in the money last time when 2nd at Gosford over 388m. Ran one of the fastest times on the program last start despite finishing in the minors. Rates highly and will give a great sight. PAST TENSE (1) has been mixing form lately, hitting the frame two back before finishing fifth (35.56) at this track in a Grade 4/5. Well placed here and should do much better. CANYA BREW IT (5) jumped from this box last time and also the same course and distance when a 6 length third (29.86) in a Grade 4/5. Harder here but expected to measure up. COUSIN SAL (7) is in the mix despite missing out at this track last time.

Out of the placings last time but the run prior he recorded a useful 29.69 over 515m finishing second at this track. Expected to go close with a repeat.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage sixth last time out over 400m at this track. Not among the main chances this time.

Hit the frame at Gosford last time when a one length second but did record a slick 22.30 over the 388m trip. Expected to push the clock again here.

Missed the frame last time but finished in the minors two back when second (34.49) over 600m at this track. Boxed out wide but in the mix on his best form.

Was out of placings last time (25.73) at Grafton in a NG, finishing fifth and beaten 6 lengths. Yet to win but has placed three times from this draw. Will need some luck to feature.
