Sandown Park Race 4

Sportsbet Ht1 (1-6 Wins)

Prize Money: $3,940

FAST KNOCKDOWN (1) has been in super consistent form recently with two minors on end before missing the frame latest finishing fifth (38.28) at Bendigo. Solid formlines coming through her last run. Has ability and is a key runner. DESIRABILITY (2) box seated early before forging to the lead turning and lifting to score (34.96) at The Meadows in a R/A FIN over 600m. The form from her last run stacks up well. Expected to feature again. LAMP POST (7) finds it hard to break through. Has hit the frame at his last four runs, the latest finishing third (35.15) at The Meadows. Has never been out of the money in four starts this distance. Well-placed to take this out. BANDIT DARYL (8) cannot be written off despite a miss here at his latest outing.

Showed strong early pace and stuck on well despite finishing out of the placings when fifth over 660m Bendigo in 38.28. More than capable and well placed to find her best form.

Caught the eye with a fast early split and setting up a 2 length win at The Meadows over 600m in 34.96. Strongly fancied and lived right up to expectations last start. Stick with her.

Sent out long odds last time but rocketed out of the boxes with a fast early sectional and gave a sight before being swallowed up late, finishing a 2.25 lengths third (35.11) over 600m at The Meadows. Comes through a solid form race. Expected to run well.

Has been consistent, placing at his last 4 starts. Last start finished 3rd in a Grade 4/5 on July 5 over 600m at The Meadows behind Fade To Black beaten 6 lengths (35.15). Racing well and deserves a win.

Was out of the placings last time but the start prior finished in the minors when third (30.40) at big odds over 525m at The Meadows. Drawn out wide but in the mix on his best form.

Expected Early Speed:Midfield
