Sandown Park Race 6 - Putting Competitions 19 And 26 March
RIVERS MEET (4) was well fancied in betting last start but could only manage 0.9 lengths away in second (30.41). One of the contenders. SMALLER ACTS (1) is a consistent runner who is having his first try here. Comes into this a winner last time from box one where he scored by 1.1 lengths at The Meadows (30.68). Comes through a solid form race last start. Sure to be thereabouts. POINT MAN (3) has some solid form under his belt and proved too strong last time to win by 1.3 lengths at this track in a handy 29.77 beating Kopacki Rit. One of the key runners again. DASH INTENTION (2) will be hard to beat despite making her debut at this circuit.

Comes off a (30.68) win last time, scoring by 1.1 lengths in a Grade 5 over 525m at The Meadows. Has two successes and three minors from six starts from box 1. Key chance and should go close.

Got back last start and could only manage seventh but before that won by a long neck at The Meadows (30.43) beating Fast Reply in a Grade 5 on February 25. Has ability and worth including.

Was prominent from the outset and held on well to win at this track over 515m in 29.77 last start, beating Kopacki Rit. Has claims if at his best.

Needs to do more than recent efforts, the latest a seventh over 525m at The Meadows. Better off looking to others.

Missed the frame last start when a 3.5 lengths fourth (24.72) at Sale. Previous form sound including a win three back at Warragul. Tough line-up and place prospects appear best.
