The Gardens Race 6 - Racing Every Weekend In Newcastle
MY CUPCAKE (5) has a strong record this track and trip with five wins and two placings from 12 starts. Was out of the placings last time (29.70) at Wentworth Park in a Grade 4/5, finishing fourth and beaten 2.5 lengths. Looks suited and should go close. LADY LLORONA (7) found the going tougher last start when finishing 8th over 520m at Wentworth Park. Was a winner the start prior in easier at Gosford. The form out of her last race has been franked. Should be in this for a long way. COLD COLD NIGHT (8) has a strong record this track and trip with three wins and two placings from seven starts. Missed the frame latest (30.49) when seventh over 515m at this track in a Grade 5. Looks suited here and can measure up. ZIPPING VIPER (4) won in the best time of the program last time out. That form reads well.

Missed the frame last time but finished in the minors two back when third (29.96) over 515m at this track. Has a solid winning strike rate off the inside draw and is worth plenty of thought.

Got back last start and could only manage fifth but before that won by a nose at this track (23.32) beating Minecraft Fusion in a Grade 5 on October 3. Solid claims this line-up.

Placed last time (19.72) at Bulli in a Grade 5, finishing third and beaten 4.5 lengths. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed five times. Will need the right run.

Didn't make the placings last time at Wentworth Park (29.70) in a Grade 4/5, finishing a 2.5 lengths fourth. Has three wins and three placings from 10 starts from the draw. Expected to go close.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage seventh last time out over 515m at this track. Not one of the leading chances on this occasion.

Won two starts back when well in the market at Gosford over 515m. Last start finished last in a NG on October 10 over 520m at Wentworth Park behind Summer Angel beaten 17 lengths (30.84). Leading chance who should prove hard to beat.

Was out of placings last time (30.49) at this track in a Grade 5, finishing seventh and beaten 8 lengths. Yet to win but has placed three times from this draw. With a clean break looks hard to beat.

Got back last start and could only manage fifth but before that won by 0.8 lengths at Gosford (22.52) beating Bigbad Maisie in a Grade 5 on September 24. Shouldn't trouble the top few hopes.
