Sandown Park Race 8 - Hooked On Scotch At Stud
PAW GORDY (4) rocketed around 485m at Horsham in 27.08 three back then has been in the money the last two since. Expected to push the clock again here. SILVER MACK (2) goes very well at this journey having never missed the frame including two wins. Scored by 2 lengths last time (29.71) in a Mix 3/4 over 515m at this track. Looks one of the chances. HIS SPECIAL (1) looks an each-way chance.

Missed the frame last time but was in the minors two on end prior to that, the most recent when second (35.14) at big odds over 595m at this track. Aided by the inside draw but will need the breaks to go his way.

Sent out long odds last time but charged out of the boxes with a strong early sectional and went on to clock 29.71 in a 2 length win at this track over 515m. Ran one of the fastest times on the program in that last win. Stay with her.

Missed the frame last start when a 8 length sixth (30.18) at this track. Previous form sound including a win three back at The Meadows. Capable and may well bounce back this time.

Last start finished fifth on April 16 over 595m at this track behind Magic Loki, beaten 10 lengths (34.88) in a Grade 4/5. Shouldn't trouble the top few hopes.

Had been racing in honest fashion, recording four placings in a row, before finishing fifth (30.40) at The Meadows last start. Tough draw to overcome and looks a each way chance only this field.
