The Gardens Race 6

Ladbrokes Popular Srm 1-2 Win

Prize Money: $2,335

DARLEY BOY (1) was an impressive maiden winner here on debut showing good early pace but was disappointing here last week. Can bounce back. ALCARAZ (1) has good Bulli form and looks to be down slightly in class. Big threat. SUNDOWN (7) is drawn the wrong side but finds a winnable race. Just needs a clear run. HOOKED ON HOPE (4) value hope if jumps.

Distance: 400m
Class: 5th Grade
Track: Good
