Sandown Park Race 3

Sportsbet Final

Prize Money: $9,055

REAPER (1) goes very well at this course having never missed the frame including three wins and two placings. Comes off a (29.36) win last time, scoring by 9 lengths in a Grade 5 H over 515m at this track. Looks a leading chance on best. ASTON WALKER (5) is an honest type rarely out of the money, scoring at this track (29.80) last time and making it two straight wins. Super consistent and can feature with the right run. HE SHINES (3) last start finished 3rd over 515m at this track beaten 2.75 lengths (29.99) behind ASTON WALKER in a Grade 5 H on April 21. Looks a key player on best form. GALLOPING RED (2) is a last-start placegetter who will have admirers.

Was prominent from the outset and held on well to win at this track over 515m in 29.36 last start, beating Galloping Red. Likes the rails so has hit winning form and can go on with it.

Latest effort finished 3rd in a Grade 5 H on April 21 over 515m at this track behind Aston Walker beaten 2.75 lengths (29.99). Has been around the mark at his last couple and should make his presence felt.

Won again and recorded an impressive time after leading to make it two on the trot at this track over 515m (29.80). With even luck looks hard to beat again.
