Sandown Park Race 5

Vale Robert Mccurdy

Stake: $11,047

QUINLEE BALE (3) Mediocre performance when 6th last time at the track. Has to be strongly considered. FLYING DINAR (5) Flashed home late into 3rd last run here in 29.72s over 515m. Can give this a shake. PAW WINKWORTH (8) Looked outclassed when 8th last run at The Meadows. Should improve here and can find a nice position from the draw. Strong chance. DR. WILL (1) Backs up quickly. Was first to greet the judge when winning last run at Warragul and will be aiming for a soft run from the draw. Racing consistently this campaign. Solid each way claims.

Distance: 515m

Backing up quickly. Was all too good winning last run at Warragul and has the ideal box. Very competitive this campaign and returning to more ground. Has some claims.

Odds of $4.50 and disappointing effort when 8th last run at the track. Should race on the speed. Tough race will need luck.

Amongst the placegetters when 3rd last time at the track in 29.74s over 515m. Should come to hand quickly. Has been a model of consistency this campaign. Not at all out of this race.

Lost ground in the run home when 8th last run at The Meadows. Should improve here and gets a favourable draw. Has a nice turn of foot. Can win.
