Sandown Park Race 2 - British Stallion Studs Ebf Mdn Stakes (Gbb Race)
CATCHING DREAMS (2) Came on strongly to finish 2nd last run at Lingfield and was on debut last time. Connor Planas and Charlie Appleby make a formidable team. Top prospects against this opposition. PULSE OF FIRE (7) Ed Walker 2yo by Mehmas having first start. Watch the market. ELEVATING (8) On a short back up. Underperformed when 9th last run at Goodwood and coming back in distance. Should go close. MENHAAL (6) Resumes from a spell. Came in 5th last time at Nottingham. Should bounce back. Should muster plenty of early toe. Can give this a shake.

Was $126.00 and below par when 14th last start at Goodwood. Expected to settle towards the rear. Hard to warm to at present.

Attacked the line when 2nd last run at Lingfield and having second career run. Has shown early pace in races to date. Should go very close.

At $67.00 disappointing outing when 11th last start at Southwell. Gets back and needs luck. In a lot of trouble.

Odds of $11.00 and tailed off to finish 6th last time at Ascot but having second race start. Won't be far away during the run. Appears tested.

Odds of $41.00 and only fair when 9th last time at Windsor but drawn beautifully. Prefers to settle towards the rear. Others are better.

Racing fresh after a break. At $2.20 ran 5th last time at Nottingham. Should bounce back. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Goes well and could be a value opportunity.

Backs up quickly. Jumped at $15.00 and unimpressive effort when 9th last run at Goodwood and back to a shorter distance. Strong prospects.

Jumped at $81.00 and not up to scratch when 9th last start at Kempton. Likely to get back in the run. Very unlikely.
