Sandown Park Race 9 - 2 Chances To Spin Tonight For 10K

INTREPID BALE (1) could manage only fourth at this track last time but caught the eye when posting a brilliant 29.34 over 515m at this track the start prior. Should be in this for a long way. WERRIS BALE (5) started big odds last time where he hit the ground running and was never headed, leading throughout to win by 1.3 lengths over 595, at this track (34.31). Form here at the trip sound including three wins. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. Deserves serious consideration again. ETHANOL VOLUME (4) goes very well this trip starting 24 times for eight wins and nine minors. In the money last time at this track (34.39) in a Free For All, finishing a 1.3 lengths second. Looks suited here and can measure up. MEPUNGA SMOKEY (2) will need to repeat last run to feature.

Missed the frame last time but was in the minors two on end prior to that, the most recent when third (31.57) at big odds over 545m at Ballarat. Boxed out wide and will need to find best.
