Sandown Park Race 7

Sandown Vet Clinic

Prize Money: $9,055

SPICY LA VIDA (4) was 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 4 length third (29.65) over 515m at this track. Must come into calculations. FLAT OUT FREDDY (2) had been in super honest form hitting the frame seven times on end before finishing sixth (30.17) at Wentworth Park last time. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and two minor placings to his credit. Key runner on best form. DOONGALLA DON (7) went straight to the front and never headed when winning two back but could manage only midfield last time when finished 5th and beaten 9 lengths at this track (29.83). Must be included in calculations. PAW GORDY (3) gets a chance to improve on an unplaced run at his latest outing at this circuit.

Missed the frame latest (30.81) when fourth over 525m at The Meadows in a Grade 5 H. Has two successes and five minors from 10 starts from box 1. Looks a place chance at best.

Was out of placings last time (30.17) at Wentworth Park in a NG, finishing sixth and beaten 5 lengths. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and two minors. Looks suited here and rates a leading chance.

Was out of the placings last time at this track but prior to that had been racing consistently, notching four minors in a row. Drawn a inside box but prefer each-way.

Charged out of the boxes with a fast early sectional but gathered in and finished in the minors when third (29.65) at this track over 515m. Has a fast 29.57 PB at this course and distance. Hard to beat.

Missed the frame last start when sixth but had been in strong form prior to that, winning two on end before placing two back. Tough field and looking to others this time.

Won two starts back at this track over 515m in 30.10. Couldn't repeat the feat last time out when fourth over 510m at Sale at Grade 5 level. Failed to threaten last start and looks tested again.
