Sandown Park Race 7 - Launching Pad (1-6 Wins) Ht3
FRACTIONS (3) was in the placings last time but shapes well for this on his lightning win three back, getting around The Meadows over 525m in 29.58. Smart win three back and looks a key chance here.

BLUE STORM (8) is progressing well with another good run last time, placing (29.46) last time out at this track. Bold showing expected. UNCHECKED (2) is a last-start placegetter after leading early on – sure to have admirers.
