The Gardens Race 4 - Mark Hughes Foundation
I'M ALRIGHT (3) has been in the minors the last two, the latest showing strong pace early but gathered in and finished a 3 length third over 400m this track in 23.03. Makes plenty of appeal. PANDA UNLEASHED (1) has been mixing form lately, hitting the frame two back before finishing seventh (23.19) at Dubbo in a Grade 4/5. Well placed here and can atone this time. LISA'S VOGUE (2) ran below best last time finishing fourth (23.03) over 400m at this track from Box 8. Is yet to miss the placings from this draw, including two wins, from five starts. Has the ability to give this a shake. FASCINATE JESS (7) found the frame for the second consecutive time when narrowly beaten into second last time out (23.47) over 400m at this track.

Didn't make the placings last time at Dubbo (23.19) in a Grade 4/5, finishing a 9 length seventh. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and five minors. Looks a leading chance.
