Sandown Park Race 10

Schillaci At Stud

Prize Money: $8,785

PAW SAPPHIRE (6) is a capable type and proved too classy last time to win by 2.5 lengths at Warrnambool in a handy 25.41 beating She's Primed. Won at her only start from this box. Well placed and will be tough to beat. MR. MOCHA (2) is generally an honest type in the frame at six of 15 starts but missed the placings last time when seventh (30.80) over 525m at The Meadows. Has the ability and rates a key chance this line-up. GOBLIN (8) brought up her 8th career win last start at Shepparton (22.15). Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. Leading chance again. PABLO VENDETTA (4) is worth consideration.

Good effort last time when second (34.81) over 595m at this track. Boxed the fence this time. Has to do a bit more.

Out of the placings last time but the run prior he clocked an outstanding 22.60 over 400m finishing second at Warragul. Rates a top chance with a repeat here.

Missed the frame last time but was in the minors two on end prior to that, the most recent when third (27.41) over 485m at Horsham. Has a squeeze box to navigate and needs to bounce back.

Was prominent from the outset and held on well to win at Warrnambool over 450m in 25.41 last start, beating She's Primed. Form reads well for this.

Good performance after racing just off the speed to win by 1.5 lengths at Shepparton over 390m (22.15) beating Scott Charisma in Grade 4/5 on June 29. Looks a solid contender.
