Sandown Park Race 3 - Sandowngreyhounds.com.au
ASTON REEVES (7) was in the money last time out when second and beaten 2 lengths at Ballarat over 545m (31.11). Has failed to finish in the placings from two starts here. Ran one of the fastest times on the program last start despite finishing in the minors. Sure to be about the mark. TIGER ROCKS (1) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing fourth (35.20) in a R/A FIN at this track. Solid record here at the distance winning two races. Goes well out of this box with a win and eight minor placings. Key player if finds best. SALT SPECKLE (2) was responsible for a modest effort most recently when fifth at Bendigo over 500m behind Flash Of Genius (28.17) in a Grade 4/5. Comes out of a solid form race last start. Should be thereabouts. VINTAGE KING (4) is a last-start placegetter at big odds who will have admirers.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (35.20) in a R/A FIN, finishing a 9 length fourth. Goes well out of this box with a win and eight minors. With a clean break looks hard to beat.

Was out of placings last time (28.17) at Bendigo in a Grade 4/5, finishing fifth and beaten 6 lengths. Goes well out of this box with a win and three minors. With even luck and a clean start should be thereabouts.

Won two starts back at Bendigo over 500m in 28.52. Followed that up with a minor placing over 715m at this track at Grade 5 two weeks ago. Top-three hope with the right run.

Could only manage sixth last time but placed two on end prior to that, the latest when third (30.52) over 525m at The Meadows. Tricky draw to overcome and will need the right run to feature.

Nearing another win after his success on May 7 at Ballarat over 450m. Last start was second over 545m in 31.11, behind Indy Melmen. The form from his last run is stacking up nicely. Follow up.

Has finished fifth at her last couple of starts, most recently at Traralgon over 570m. Not likely to feature on this occasion.
