Sandown Park Race 8

Sportsbet Fast Form

Stake: $9,870

EXPLICIT (5) was simply breathtaking when scoring here last week in 28.93 and he should be scoring again. BAGMAN (6) pushed the champ to the limit here back in June and he can fill the quinella spot. PEAKY JOE (1) has the good draw

Comments

Sent out long odds last time but rocketed out of the boxes with a fast early sectional and gave a sight before being swallowed up late, finishing a 6 length second (29.37) over 515m at this track. Racing well and can find winning form again.

Strong performance showing plenty of speed to score by 2.25 lengths in a Grade 5 last start at this track, recording a powerful 29.43 over the 515m journey. Hard to top on that run.

Started big odds last time but hit the ground running with a slick early split, giving a sight but fading out of it to finish fourth (30.87) at The Meadows over 525m. Better off looking to others.

Modest effort last time out when fourth over 525m at The Meadows. Happy enough to dismiss in this field.

Easy winner leading throughout to score by 6 lengths in a Free For All last start at this track, clocking a dazzling 28.93 over the 515m trip. In form and looks tough to beat again.

Scored by a neck last time (29.98) in a Grade 5 over 515m at this track. Yet to win but has placed two times from this draw. Looks one of the chances.
