Sandown Park Race 7 - Nordoff & Robbins Ozzy Osbourne Memorial Handicap
INTO THE LIGHT (3) Placed 2nd last run at Southwell but coming back in trip. Has run into the placings at every start this preparation. William T Buick rates highly. No shock to see a win. COLOURBAND (1) Won by a huge margin of 4L last run at Bath and up against weaker rivals. James Doyle and Simon Crisford & Ed Crisford are consistently competitive when paired. Respect against this field. LOST BOYS (2) First up from a 29 week spell. Charged home to win last run at Haydock and promising career start. Should be going forward early. Respect. MAGIC TRIP (4) Ran 3rd last run at Kempton and lining up against easier rivals. Keep in mind.

Won easily by 4L last run at Bath and challenged by weaker competitors. James Doyle and Simon Crisford & Ed Crisford are a promising combination. Has drawn the rails. Good chance and definitely has claims.

Fresh after a break of 29 weeks. Finished hard to win last run at Haydock and showing consistent performance in races. Has plenty of early speed. Definite claims.

Looked good when 2nd last run at Southwell but back to a shorter distance. Been in the money each attempt this preparation. Will go close.

Honest race when 3rd last run at Kempton and competing in a less challenging grade. Can feature in this event.

Racing fresh after a break. Jumped at $10.00 and weakened to finish 9th last start at Newmarket but has a good draw. Should muster plenty of early toe. Not likely to be troubling the more fancied runners today.

First up from a break of 26 weeks. Grabbed towards the finish when 3rd last time at Newbury. Oisin Murphy and Harry Charlton & Roger Charlton are an imposing duo. Others much better.
