The Gardens Race 6 - Racing Every Weekend In Newcastle
BLACK DAZZLER (5) goes very well at the distance with two wins and a placing from four starts. Below best last time at this track (23.98) in a Grade 5, finishing a 20 length seventh. Expected to be in the finish. JACKPOT CHEVY (6) was well backed last start but ran below expectations when sixth (17.78), beaten 3 lengths. Was in the money the start prior. The form out of her last race has been franked. Will give the top chances plenty to think about. MARTIN'S SHINE (1) is first up since finishing sixth (30.35) in a Grade 5 at this track over 515m five months ago. Overall strike-rate good and can feature with the right run. ZIPPING BAFF (4) cannot be left out over a shorter trip.

Well supported here last start but couldn't repay punters, finishing finished 6th in a Grade 5 on October 28 over 300m at Taree Super Track behind Angelic Baroque beaten 3 lengths (17.78). Placed two back at this track. Has the ability to take this out.

Flew the lids with a fast early split and went on to clock 19.84 when a one length winner over 340m at Gunnedah. The form from the last run stacks up well. Worth including.

Finished third last time (23.13) over 400m at Maitland. Jumps from a wide draw. Has to do a bit more.
