The Gardens Race 10 - Racing Every Weekend In Newcastle

HOT TO RULE (1) well back settling but did wind up strongly to finish 5th and beaten only 3.5 lengths (23.12) at this track. Good beginner assisted by the inside draw. Has claims if he runs up to expectations. POURING RAIN (2) is worth forgiving last start after finishing seventh (23.43) from Box 2 at this track over 400m. Has a solid record from this box including two wins and a minor placing. Better than last start and can bounce back. RHONDA FULL DAY (5) comes off an average performance last start when fifth at Taree Super Track over 300m behind Stormy Bella (18.01) in a Grade 5. Better than last start and can bounce back. SUNSHINE RHONDA (8) placed at long odds last time and cannot be ignored.
