Sandown Park Race 4 - Simon Chisel Chappell 60th Birthday
FLASH OF GENIUS (3) failed to come into contention last start after losing his position early at Bendigo, but prior to that won by 1.75 lengths at Warragul (25.99) beating DR. WARREN in a Special conditions H on June 4. Has a solid record from this box including two wins and a minor placing. Tough to beat if on-song. PAW ISLA (1) ran below her best last time finishing eighth (30.45) over 515m at this track in a Grade 4/5. Form at the trip sound including four wins. Can measure up this time. NEO DEVERE (6) is a talented type and proved too classy last time to win by 4 lengths at The Meadows in a handy 30.10 beating Zipping Columbus. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and three minor placings to his credit. Leading chance again. SUPER FREAKY (4) profiles nicely here at this trip.

Could only manage sixth last time but placed two on end prior to that, the latest at double-figure odds when second (26.11) over 460m at Warragul. Has to overcome a wide draw and will need to find best.
