Sandown Park Race 1 - Book Christmas In July
SHE'S ALLURING (1) looks close to another win after hitting the frame in a 3.5 lengths third (30.12) in a Grade 6 at this track. Is yet to taste defeat in two starts from this draw. Can measure up this time. LITTLE MONKEY (3) shapes nicely here coming off a convincing 29.82 victory at The Meadows over 525m. Top win latest and rates a key player again. PHANTOM QUARTZ (7) missed the frame last time when fourth (30.16) in a Grade 6 at this track after a slow start and settling well off the pace. Was fast away and placed (30.16) at this track the start prior. Key runner who gets his chance to atone. PAW JAXSON (2) ran good time (22.37) when second last start over 390m at Warrnambool, the second placing in a row.

Dominant winner showing plenty of speed to post a big 7 lengths victory in a Mix 6/7 last start at The Meadows, recording a dynamic 29.82 over the 525m journey. Has the ability and looks a key chance again.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at Warragul over 460m in 26.07. Followed that up with a minor placing over 515m at this track at Mix 6/7 a week ago. Going well and can bounce back to winning form.

Form has been solid with minor placings at his last three starts. Last time out finished 2nd in a Mix 6/7 FIN on July 9 over 515m at this track behind Red Hot Kermaro beaten 5 lengths (30.24). Happy to risk this time.
