Sandown Park Race 7

Prize Money: $8,785

FLUFFY MASON (4) comes here after a sizzling Restricted WIN win at Horsham over 485m in 27.18. Expected to push the clock again here. GOLD CODE (2) is better than last start when sixth (34.84) in a Special conditions H at this track over 595m. Likely to be about the money. PAW FAROK (3) is a talented type and proved too strong last time to win by 1.75 lengths at The Meadows in a handy 30.20 beating Paw Quebec. In top form and looks a key chance again. MEPUNGA LILLY (6) is right in the mix.

Found some support last start but struggled and finished 6th on June 25 over 595m at this track behind Urana Xavier beaten 4 lengths (34.84) in a Special conditions H. Placed two back at Traralgon. Around the mark two starts back. Winning chance on that form.

Consistent performer who is new here. Nice win last start by 1.75 lengths at The Meadows (30.20) beating Paw Quebec in a Grade 5 on June 27. In winning form now and looks a major threat.

Eye-catching performance showing plenty of speed to score by 2 lengths in a Restricted WIN last start at Horsham, recording a superb 27.18 over the 485m journey. Has the ability and looks a key chance again.

Missed the frame latest (30.94) when eighth over 525m at The Meadows in a Grade 4. Has two successes and two minors from seven starts from box 6. With even luck and a clean start should be thereabouts.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at this track over 515m in 29.74. Followed that up with a minor placing over 525m at The Meadows at Grade 5 five days ago. Not suited by wide draw, no easier here so may struggle.

Did a good job two starts back at this track to win by 4 lengths in 34.22, beating Lamia Nonna Mim. Last start finished last over 600m at The Meadows beaten 9 lengths (35.44) behind Elite One in a Grade 5 on June 20. Not keen, needs to lift.
