Sandown Park Race 5 - Vic Nationals Distance Series Final

WITHOUT A TRACE (1) is a strong stayer well performed over the longer races. Last start was fourth over 715m at this track in a Special conditions H (42.57). Form here at the trip sound including two wins. Has a strong record out of this box with two wins and two minor placings from five starts. Should bounce back. MEPUNGA LARA (8) is progressing well with another good run last time, placing (42.22) at this track. Solid record here at the distance winning five races. Will give a great sight again. IN MODERATION (4) has a strong winning strike-rate here having won three of five starts. Comes off a (41.91) win last time, scoring by 6 lengths in a Special conditions H over 715m at this track. Looks well placed here and among the chances. ESPOIR (2) has a solid strike rate from this box.

Well supported here last start but failed to deliver, finishing finished 4th over 715m at this track beaten 9 lengths (42.57) behind In Moderation in a Special conditions H on August 6. Placed two back at Q Parklands. Thereabouts of late and rates highly this line-up. Expected to be in the finish.

Was prominent from the outset and held on well to win at this track over 715m in 42.14 last start, beating Mepunga Lara. Makes appeal on the back of that latest win.
