Sandown Park Race 1 - Sportsbet Ht1
HOW MUCH LONGER (7) showed blistering pace early and gave a sight when in the minors, beaten 1.75 lengths over 525m The Meadows in 30.45. Comes out of a solid form race last start. Can measure up this time. LUMINAIRE (4) made an eye-catching debut when hit the ground running with a slick early sectional but had to settle for a minor placing when a 6 length third over 515m at this track, clocking 30.51. Promising type and rates a leading chance. DUSEN LUNA (8) profiles nicely for her debut but has a wide box to overcome. Among the main hopes. GLIMMERING (2) is back from a break and worth including.

Ran a fair race on debut when fifth (23.05) at Geelong over 400m. Improver and gets the rails draw this time. Not one of the leading chances on this occasion.

Missed the frame on debut over 400m at Warragul when fifth (23.28) and beaten 6 lengths. Should be further improved. Can't recommend against this lot.

Is a four start maiden overdue for a win, hitting the frame last start when second (30.45) over 525m at The Meadows. Expected to prove tough to beat.

Well bred first race starter by Bernardo from Strada. Has claims if at her best.
