Sandown Park Race 9 - Sportsbet Harrison-Dawson Ht2
DEADLY AVENGER (2) ran a good 29.45 when filling a minor placing over 515m at this track last start. Expected to go close again if runs up to latest time. REALITY UTE (1) is a promising type who notched his 4th career success when too good (29.72) at this track last time. One of the prime contenders. SPARRING (5) has some solid form under his belt and proved too classy last time to win by 2 lengths at this track in a handy 29.51 beating Elusive Curl. Winner at his latest appearance in the quickest time on the card. Leading chance again. MEPUNGA ZIRCON (7) was in the money last start in fast time and should feature again.

Struggling to break through but racing consistently, finishing in the minors three starts on end. Last time out flew the lids with a fast early sectional but gathered in and finished in the minors when second (29.45) at this track over 515m. Form from this box is very strong, including four wins. Hard to beat.

Good performance to win by 0.7 lengths at The Meadows over 525m (29.89) beating Paw Damon in Grade 5 on May 2. Other runners look much more appealing.
