Sandown Park Race 12 - Follow Us @Sandowndogs

PAW JASTA (8) has mixed form recently, finishing fourth (25.51) in a Grade 4/5 at Shepparton latest but did run well two back when in the frame. This looks easier and expected to improve sharply. VIKING RULER (2) has been hard to follow lately, running eighth (31.04) last time but prior to that ran very well when placed at Horsham. Can hit the frame this time. RAPIDO NINJA (4) is always a threat when he races at this journey.

Strong performance to win by 0.8 lengths at this track over 515m (29.98) beating Nellie Running in Grade 5 NP on October 19. The form from the last run stacks up nicely. Worth following up.

Having her first run at this track. Comes off an average run last start over 350m at Healesville when eighth behind Greta's Gold (19.84) in Grade 5. Other runners look much more appealing.

Missed the frame latest (25.51) when fourth over 450m at Shepparton in a Grade 4/5. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed two times. Key chance and should go close.
