Sandown Park Race 6

Book Zoom Into June Specials

Prize Money: $3,340

PAW MISSY (2) showed good early speed but faded to a close fourth (30.48) at The Meadows over 525m. Should be very hard to beat this time. ZIPPING WICHITA (1) had a tricky draw and ran well to finish third, beaten 1.75 lengths, (30.48) at The Meadows. Can feature again. SURF'S UP (3) is a talented type and proved too strong last time to win by 2 lengths at The Meadows in a handy 30.44 beating Athens Aura. Has definite claims. HOCUS POCUS (6) is worth some thought after placing last start.

Suited by inside box. Latest effort finished 3rd over 525m at The Meadows beaten 1.75 lengths (30.48) behind Ivory Mihara in a Grade 5 on June 3. Looks well placed and should prove hard to beat.

Comments

Started big odds last time but hit the ground running with a slick early split, giving a sight but fading out of it to finish fourth (30.48) at The Meadows over 525m. Has been around the mark at her last couple and should make her presence felt.

Solid performance to win by 2 lengths at The Meadows over 525m (30.44) beating Athens Aura in Grade 5 on May 21. Makes plenty of appeal on the back of the latest win.

Flew the lids with a fast early split but ran over at the finish when a narrow fourth (19.78) over 350m at Healesville. Has ability and worth including.

Good effort to win last start by 1.2 lengths over 425m at Bendigo in a handy (24.20), beating City Limit. Key chance again.
