Sandown Park Race 6 - Launching Pad Consolation Final
ABDULLA ZULU (1) was out of character last run when missing the frame, finishing eighth (30.10) in a Special conditions SF at this track. Normally safely away but always well back and facing a task from wide out last time. Strike rate this course and distance strong having won three of five tries. Has won two of two starts from this draw. Should be very hard to beat this time. ALGEBRA (2) turned in a fair 5th placed finish last time at this track over 515m (30.50). Form here at the trip excellent including two wins. Can measure up this time. ZAMBORA BLISS (7) goes very well here including two wins. Below best last time at this track (30.77) in a Special conditions SF, finishing a 8 length seventh. Makes strong appeal on best. CONCEIVABLE (5) has ability and finds the right scenario to bounce back.

Was out of the placings last time at this track but prior to that had been racing consistently, notching three minors in a row. Has a squeeze box to navigate and will need to find best.

Could manage only sixth last time but caught the eye the start prior when he clocked a fast 29.50 over 515m finishing second at this track. Among the each way chances if runs up best times.
