Sandown Park Race 10 - Rexel Lightening Bolt
NIGEL DEVERE (1) flew the lids with a sensational early split and hit the frame with a half a length second (30.17) over 525m at The Meadows. Goes very well from this draw with four wins and three minor placings from nine starts. Can find winning form. CANYA ADIRA (2) is a progressive type who recorded her 6th career win last time out (34.64) at The Meadows. Ran one of the fastest times on the program in her latest win. Leading chance again. SWEET SUNDOWN (3) jumped favourite and quickly to the front but run down late to finish second (34.68) at The Meadows in a Grade 4/5 over 600m. Didn't win last time but still ran one of the quickest times on the card. Expected to feature again. DUSTY MCGRAW (6) good strike-rate and a bold showing is expected here.

Big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a fast early split, grabbed late but holding on to a placing when a 5 length third (29.76) over 515m at this track. Right in the mix here.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at Horsham over 410m in 23.44. Couldn't repeat the feat last time out when fourth over 525m at The Meadows at Grade 4/5 level. Has ability and worth including.
