The Gardens Race 4 - Racing Every Weekend In Newcastle
FEED THE METER (8) ran good time (15.90) winning a Grade 5 at this track when jumping from this same box. Solid beginner and with a good start should have clear running out wide. In winning form and can measure up again. FROGGY DID IT (1) started big odds in far stiffer grade latest when finishing 8th over 400m at this track. Scored at this track in weaker company the previous run. Some good form is emerging from her last run. Will give the top chances plenty to think about. RUNAWAY SAM (4) dropped out early but wound up strongly and charged into the minors when a 3 length second (16.12) at this track in Grade 5. Safe beginner but has a tricky box to overcome. Can measure up. IMOGENE PASS (5) generally performs well over this distance.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage fifth last time out over 272m at this track. Can't recommend in this field.
