The Gardens Race 8

Ladbrokes Newcastle Cup F

Stake: $37,400

GULLY GIRL (1) steps up 115m in distance at her first try over the longer trip. Strong winner last time by 6 lengths at this track in NG in the quickest time on the program (34.39). Has the ability and looks a key chance here. MOORONG MARVEL (4) missed the frame latest when sixth at Wentworth Park (43.21) but was a winner four back in the best time of the program. In the mix. AUTUMN STORM (7) got around the 710m at Albion Park to take a Grade 5/6 in a quick 41.84 for a 1.75 lengths win. Harder here but expected to feature again. MIGHT HAVE BEEN (3) was beaten into fifth last time but ran impressive time with a speedy 29.88. Worth thought on that run.
