Sandown Park Race 6

Abba Tribute Band Sos Here Cup Night

Prize Money: $4,445

WARM COCKLES (1) has missed the frame at his last couple but placed three back at Geelong and he does perform well at this trip. This looks easier and expected to bounce back. NIGEL DEVERE (2) jumped from a low draw and boxed on well to finish second last time, beaten 1.5 lengths (27.49) behind Paw Cornelius at Horsham. Ran one of the fastest times on the program last start despite finishing in the minors. Hard to beat again. TIGER ROCKS (4) was in the money again last start when second at this track (34.49).

Didn't make the placings last time at The Meadows (34.64) in a Grade 4/5, finishing a 5.5 lengths fourth. Has four wins and two placings from 11 starts from the draw. Looks a key chance on best form.

Won two starts back when well in the market at The Meadows over 600m. Last start finished 2nd on May 5 over 485m at Horsham behind Paw Cornelius beaten 1.5 lengths (27.49) in a Grade 4/5. Goes very well from this draw including three wins. Leading player.

Comments

Big odds last time but hit the ground running with a strong early split, giving a sight but fading only late to finish second (34.49) at this track over 595m. Thereabouts at his last couple and is capable of better.

Comments

Hasn't shown any early speed lately and drifts back in her races. The latest effort was a 6 length fourth over 595m at this track. Likely to find this too tough.

Drawn the outside box and could be suited with some luck. Goes ok at this track and distance but recent form not good enough, can't recommend her in this.
