The Gardens Race 5 - Greyhound Products Direct
SHADOW ASSASSIN (2) scored well last start as odds-on favourite by 1.75 lengths at Maitland in a handy 22.20 beating Poker Nismo. Fair draw can see a good run and in form and has the ability. Safe beginner who has drawn to advantage. Expected to go well again. BLAZING RASO (1) has been in super consistent form, finishing in the minors at her last four runs. Last start finished 2nd on September 12 over 520m at Wentworth Park behind Jet Boots Tommy beaten 6 lengths (30.29) in a Mix 1/2/3. Good beginner assisted by the inside draw. Must be included in calculations. ARMATREE ASAFA (4) form at this distance reads well.

Has been racing extremely well, putting five wins back-to-back. Had plenty of support last start when he won by 1.75 lengths at Maitland (22.20) beating Poker Nismo in a Grade 5 on September 7. On a hot winning streak and likely to score again.

Big odds last time but hit the ground running with a strong early split, giving a sight but fading only late to finish second (29.74) at this track over 515m. Found one better last time. Looks well placed and is worth following up.

Had been racing in honest fashion, recording three placings in a row, before finishing sixth (30.72) at Taree Super Track last start. Awkwardly drawn and prefer the place this line-up.

Won two starts back at this track over 400m in 23.05. Couldn't repeat the feat last time out when fifth over 515m at this track at Grade 4/5 level. Happy enough to dismiss in this field.

Form has been good with a placing two starts ago and a win three runs back. Last time out finished 3rd in a Grade 4/5 on September 11 over 515m at this track behind Hey Mac beaten 3.5 lengths (29.70). Doesn't profile as a likely winner.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage sixth last time out over 515m at Gosford. Hard to have this time.
