Sandown Park Race 6 - Launching Pad Qualifier Ht1
SIMPLY STUNNING (8) scored two back with ease when racing on speed but drifted back and missed the frame latest finishing a 9 length 4th at this track (29.92). Looks the one to beat on her best form. WIZARD WATSON (7) could manage only second at this track last time but impressed when posting a speedy 25.14 over 450m at Ballarat three starts ago. Must include on winning run three back. TONY (6) had been super consistent recording two placings in a row before he was rewarded with a win last time, scoring at The Meadows over 525m (30.38). Can measure up again. MEPUNGA SHADOW (2) generally performs well over this distance.

Goes well at this track and trip. At the last outing finished 4th on February 7 over 525m at The Meadows behind Ivory Inzai beaten 7 lengths (30.71) in a Grade 5. Has claims if at his best.

Produced a good effort last start to finish fifth in a Grade 5 on February 10 over 450m at Ballarat behind Paw Lovisa, beaten 2.5 lengths (25.82). Will not find this easy. Not keen.

Flew the lids with a fast early split and went on to clock 30.38 when a 1.5 lengths winner over 525m at The Meadows. Can keep things rolling.

Flew the lids with a fast early split but had to contend with second when clocking 29.56 over 515m at this track. In the money last time and looks well placed to go one better.

Back from a spell of 11 weeks. Won two starts back when well in the market at Sale over 510m. Last start finished 4th over 515m at this track beaten 9 lengths (29.92) behind Abdulla Zulu in a R/A FIN on December 11. Comes out of a hot form race. Worth following up.
