Sandown Park Race 8

Happy 80Th Birthday John Carr

Stake: $10,903

REITERATE (2) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing sixth (39.72) last time in a Special conditions H at Geelong. Has ability and can bounce back. COPPER RUSH (4) made it two minor placings on the trot when beaten second (34.89) in a Grade 5 at The Meadows last time out. Rates a winning chance on best. SCOTCH TIME (6) was below best last time but three back was a Grade 4/5 winner in the quickest time on the card at The Meadows over 730m in a Grade 4/5. Can hit the frame this time. SEPHORA BALE (7) is a last-start placegetter at this track and distance - should be thereabouts.

Big odds last time but hit the ground running with a strong early split, giving a sight but fading only late to finish second (34.89) at The Meadows over 600m. Leading chance who should prove hard to beat.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at The Meadows over 600m in 34.77. Couldn't repeat the feat last time out when fourth over 600m at The Meadows at R/A FIN level. Look for improvement. Not out of it.

Was a winner three back at The Meadows then finished in the minors before missing the frame last time when fourth (42.36) at this track. Looks a key chance here on best and given another chance.

Got back last start and could only manage seventh but before that won easily by 8 lengths at this track (33.77) beating Navarino in a Grade 4/5 on May 23. Not among the main chances this time.
