Sandown Park Race 2 - Launching Pad Runway Ht1
FRACTIONS (4) is worth forgiving last start after finishing sixth (30.85) in a Special conditions H at this track over 515m. Got the money at his only try from this box. Has ability and is a key runner. TRIPPED OUT (2) was crowded for room and fell here last time. No luck latest and gets chance to atone. MEPUNGA SHADOW (1) has mixed form recently, finishing fourth (30.06) in a Special conditions H at this track latest but did run well two back when in the frame. Expected to bounce back to best. SINALOA BANDIT (7) is in the mix despite missing out at this track last time.

Missed the frame last time but finished in the minors two back when third (29.86) over 515m at this track. Aided by the inside draw and is worth plenty of thought.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage fifth last time out over 515m at this track. Prepared to risk on this occasion.

Did a good job two starts back at The Meadows to win by 1.3 lengths in 30.27, beating Feikuai Calvin. Last start finished 6th on March 19 over 515m at this track behind Abdulla Zulu beaten 15 lengths (30.32) in a Special conditions H. Prepared to risk this time.
