Sandown Park Race 5 - Hooked On Scotch At Stud

NOVA OWEN (7) finished in the minors last time but only a few starts back pushed the clock when winning over 525m at The Meadows, taking a Grade 5 H in a handy 29.97. Expected to push the clock again here. MIDNIGHT THUNDER (8) flew the lids with a fast early split last time, hitting the frame with a 7 length third (30.56) over 525m at The Meadows and making it two placings on end. Leading player again. DR. HOPPER (1) finished well back at this track last time when a 10 length fifth (30.11) but scored four back at this track (30.10). Has won three of four starts from this draw. Expected to run well. PANAMA RHODE (3) will be hard to beat with a drop in journey.

Found some support last start but struggled and finished last on February 7 over 525m at The Meadows behind Count The Stars beaten 15 lengths (31.23) in a Grade 5. Placed two back at Launceston. Forgive the latest run. Has solid claims on his best form.

Has been in the minors the last two, the latest showing strong pace early but gathered in and finished a 7 length third over 525m The Meadows in 30.56. Has been around the mark at his last couple and should make his presence felt.
