Sandown Park Race 7 - Aston Rupee At Stud
REMUS LUPIN (2) turned spotting a big start finishing seventh (29.80) last time in a Grade 5 at this track. Comes out of a solid form race last start. Has ability and can bounce back. BANDIT BARBIE (1) comes off an average effort last start when sixth at Warragul over 460m behind I'm Fabulous (27.00) in a Grade 5. Has a strong record from box 1, including four wins. Leading chance. NO DO DAY (3) improved her time on first attempt here at the trip with a 2.25 lengths third in 29.70 latest. Looks a leading chance again. IAN ALBERT (8) is worth including after a top-three finish at big odds most recently.

Flew the lids with a sensational early split and led until late but gathered in when a 2.25 lengths third at this track over 515m in 29.70. Looks a strong winning hope.

Missed the frame latest (25.62) when fifth over 450m at Shepparton in a Grade 4/5. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed four times. Looking to others.

In great form with wins at her last two. Scored most recently over 595m at this track in R/A FIN class a week ago. Would be better placed in something easier.

Form has been solid with minor placings at his last four starts. Last time out finished 2nd over 525m at The Meadows beaten 5.5 lengths (30.55) behind Ivory Inzai in a Grade 5 on February 7. Shouldn't trouble the top few hopes.
