Sandown Park Race 1 - Sportsbet Blackbook
BLOWING TRUMPETS (3) recorded his 1st career win last time out (29.60) at this track and drawn box 3 for the first time here. Has never missed the frame here at the trip from three starts. Expected to go well again. TANDANYA (4) goes very well here starting six times for two wins and two minors. In the money last time at this track (29.80) in a Restricted WIN, finishing a 3.5 lengths third. With even luck and a clean start should be thereabouts. HE'S FREAKY (6) finished eighth last time at Healesville but could not have been more impressive a few runs back in his dazzling 22.34 win at Warragul over 400m. Expecting another bold showing. BREACH (2) can fill a top-three spot.

Could only manage seventh last time but placed two on end prior to that, the latest when third (34.92) over 595m at this track. Aided by the inside draw but appears tested on latest effort.

Missed the frame last start when seventh and beaten 12 lengths at The Meadows. Form solid prior to that including a win at this track three back. Rates well on best and expect a better run this time.

Showed brilliant pace early and gave a sight when a 3.5 lengths third over 515m this track in 29.80. The form out of the last run measures up. Hard to beat.

Last start finished fifth over 515m at this track, beaten 11 lengths (30.61) behind Brooklyn Girl in a Restricted WIN on July 2. Can't make much of a case this time.

Did a good job two starts back at The Meadows to win by 1.75 lengths in 30.58, beating Rich Gairn. Last start finished 6th in a Mix 6/7 on July 30 over 515m at this track behind Divine Feelings beaten 8 lengths (30.36). Can't enthuse on this occasion.
