The Gardens Race 4 - Makr Hughes Foundation
HELLO CHEVY (4) goes very well at the distance with three wins and a placing from five starts. Placed last time (17.71) at Taree Super Track in a Grade 3/4, finishing third and beaten 6 lengths. Expected to be in the finish. SUDDEN SURPRISE (1) boxed on well to finish third last time, beaten 2 lengths (22.37) behind Pitman Go Well at Gosford. Leading player again. QUICK THINKIN' (6) has a strong record here with four wins and two placings from 10 starts. Missed the frame latest (30.42) when seventh over 515m at this track in a Grade 5. With even luck and a clean start should be around the money. SHIPLEY'S GIRL (2) cannot be left out after placing last start.
