Sandown Park Race 7

Sandown Vet Clinic

Stake: $3,674

DASH OF WHISKY (1) produced a modest effort most recently when fifth at Geelong over 520m behind Colac Kid (30.55) in a Special conditions H. Was in the money prior to that. Should be very hard to beat this time. MR. THOMAS (2) scored (25.94) last time out at Warragul adding to an already respectable career. Comes through a solid form race last start. Leading chance again. LAMBRICK ROAD (6) has been hard to follow lately, running sixth (30.34) last time but prior to that ran very well when placed at this track. Can hit the frame this time. MUMS PEARL (3) placed in slick time last start - worth some thought.

Suited by inside box. Last start finished 5th over 520m at Geelong beaten 9 lengths (30.55) behind Colac Kid in a Special conditions H on April 4. Missed the frame last time but prior to that had two placings in a row. Deserves another chance.

Could only manage sixth last time but the start prior hit the frame at double figure odds when third (29.67) over 515m at this track. Tough draw to overcome but capable of a better result.
