Sandown Park Race 4 - Book Christmas In July Packages

ZELDA COVILHA (5) used the inside draw to advantage last time and hit the ground running with a fast early split, paving the way for a 3.5 lengths win at The Meadows over 600m in 34.32. Recorded the quickest time on the card last start. Great chance again. ESPOIR (4) comes into this as a quickest on the card winner last time at this track, scoring by one length (34.18). Harder here but expected to measure up. NIGEL DEVERE (8) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing sixth (31.31) in a Grade 4/5 at Ballarat. Form here at this distance is sound. Comes out of a solid form race last start. Bold showing expected. ULENTA BALE (1) missed the frame latest (30.74) when seventh over 525m at The Meadows in a Special conditions H. Has already won two times from this draw.

Got back last start and could only manage seventh but before that won by 2.5 lengths at this track (42.42) beating Paw Quinby in a Grade 5 on July 9. Not far away last start. Right in the mix again.

Was out of placings last time (34.66) at this track in a Grade 4/5, finishing fourth and beaten 6 lengths. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed five times. Tough field and looking to others this time.

Should get a clear run from the wide draw. Wasn't impressive last start but does have a great record at this track and distance, racing well and has to be included.
