Sandown Park Race 3 - Book Launching Pad Dining
MAV REIKO (5) was a winner (29.84) at The Meadows two back but out of the placings last time when 7th there. Has a good record here at this journey. Comes out of a solid form race last start. Has ability and can bounce back. SPARRING (1) ran the fastest on the card last time scoring by 1.2 lengths (29.84) at The Meadows. This tougher but expected to be in the finish. FLYING DINAR (2) placed in a Free For All when a 4 length second this course and distance last time in a personal Best Time (29.27) and also clocked one of the quickest times on the card. In form and must include in calculations. IAN ALBERT (4) form at this course and distance reads well.

Could only manage fourth last time but the start prior hit the frame when third (30.38) over 525m at The Meadows. Awkwardly drawn but is in the mix.

In fine form with wins at her last couple of outings at this track. No advantage from the wide draw. Likely to struggle this time.

Backs up after winning by 0.7 lengths at The Meadows (30.19) beating Paw Yochelle in a Grade 5 on March 14 five days ago. This is much harder assignment and he needs to find another gear.
