Sandown Park Race 5 - Sportsbet Final
AMRON DANCER (6) was drawn the middle last start but pinged the lids and recorded an all-the-way win (29.23) at this track in a Grade 5 H over 515m. Was a winner at his only start from this draw. In sparkling form and looks the one to beat again. CRACKERJACK KEV (2) had the drop on the lead before drawing clear to score (29.30) at this track in a Grade 5 H over 515m. Winner at his latest appearance in one of the quickest times on the card. Can make it two on the bounce. MOTOR CITY ROSSI (1) found some support last start but struggled into fourth (30.77), beaten 9 lengths. Was in the money the start prior. Key runner on best form. NOVA OWEN (8) comes into calculations after placing at this track and distance most recently.

Found some support last start but struggled and finished 4th over 525m at The Meadows beaten 9 lengths (30.77) behind Paw Olyslagers in a Grade 5 on January 10. Placed two back at this track. Missed the frame last time but prior to that had two placings in a row. Deserves another chance.

Flew the lids with a fast early split but had to contend with second when clocking 29.48 over 515m at this track. Close to the speed and boxed on well at his latest run. In the mix again.

Produced a good effort last start to finish fourth in a Grade 5 H on January 11 over 510m at Sale behind Sweet Trilby, beaten 2.25 lengths (29.14). Can't make much of a case this time.
