Sandown Park Race 7 - The Nationals 25-30 August
ALL MUCKED UP (1) has been in super consistent form recently with two minors on end before missing the frame latest finishing fourth (29.63) at Mt Gambier. Has ability and looks hard to stop. OPALITE (3) had a tough draw to overcome and was game in defeat when only half a length from Apple Rose in second (34.72) at this track. Expected to be in the finish again. MARSHAL LEE ROSE (2) has been a little hard to follow, missing the frame last time but was a Grade 5 winner three starts ago and has drawn 2 where he has two wins. Has the ability and expected to do much better. AEROPLANE RUBY (7) scored in impressive time last start. Among the hopes.

Missed the frame latest (30.51) when fifth over 515m at this track in a Grade 5 H. Has two successes and four minors from seven starts from box 2. Looks suited and should go close.

Has struggled to jump cleanly in recent outings and the results have been disappointing, the most recent effort a sixth over 500m at Bendigo. Prepared to overlook.

Quickly out of the boxes with a slick early sectional clocking 31.40 with a 1.75 lengths win at Ballarat over 545m. Makes appeal on the back of that latest win.
