Sandown Park Race 9 - Sportsbet Final
MI AMIGO DIABLO (6) is an honest type in the frame at two of eight starts including four wins, the latest scoring (29.50) over 515m at this track. Has a strong record here including four wins. Looks the testing material here. MINER MICK (8) goes very well this trip starting 14 times for five wins and three minors. Recorded a 0.8 lengths win (29.60) in a Grade 5 H last time at this track. Can feature in the finish. FLYING ROYCE (4) jumped from this same draw and was close to the lead throughout before boxing on well and holding a 0.8 lengths second (29.65) at this track over 515m in a Grade 5 H. Harder here but expected to feature again. PAW YARIS (1) hit the frame here last start so don't underestimate.

Form has been good with a placing two starts ago and a win three runs back. Last time out finished 2nd in a Grade 5 H on July 20 over 515m at this track behind Mi Amigo Diablo beaten 8 lengths (30.05). Solid showing expected.

Flew the lids with a fast early split last time, hitting the frame with a 2.25 lengths second (30.28) over 515m at this track and making it two placings on end. Better than the last couple of runs suggest. Expected to feature.

Won two starts back at this track over 515m in 29.92. Followed that up with a minor placing over 525m at The Meadows at Grade 5 five days ago. Doesn't profile as a likely winner.
