The Gardens Race 8

Ladbrokes Odds Surge

Stake: $2,564

SOLAR RUSH (3) missed the frame latest (23.52) when fifth over 400m at this track in a Grade 4/5. Has already won three times from this draw. With a clean break looks hard to beat. CRANKY CRUISER (8) boasts a strong record this journey here with seven wins and six minors from 21 tries. Missed the frame latest (23.48) when eighth over 400m at this track in a Grade 3/4. Can feature with the right run. MISS LOUELLA (2) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing sixth (23.58) in a Grade 4/5 at this track. Form here at this distance is sound. Good beginner aided by a nice draw. Likely to be thereabouts. LAMPENT BALE (1) has strong claims after a long-odds top-three finish last time out.

Charged out of the boxes with a strong early sectional but swamped late when a close up fourth (23.40) at this track over 400m. This looks too tough.
