Sandown Park Race 4 - Sportsbet Sapphire Crown Ht4
SIMPLY STUNNING (1) is building an impressive record, last start scoring an all the way win (29.47) at this track in Grade 5 over 515m. Fast beginner who should quickly stride to the lead. Form from her last run is proving strong. Shapes as a top winning chance on latest effort. CLEO'S STAR (2) showed strong early pace and stuck on well despite finishing out of the placings when fourth over 515m this track in 29.86. Has ability and can measure up. PAW MATIC (4) scored well last start as odds-on favourite by 0.6 lengths at this track in a handy 29.67 beating Scott Sigma. Has a tricky draw to overcome but goes well at this distance. Has won four of six starts from this draw. Sure to be thereabouts. ASH INTENTION (8) scored by 4 lengths last time (29.71) in a Grade 5 FIN over 515m at this track. Yet to taste defeat in two runs from this draw.

Impressive performance showing plenty of speed to score by a half a length in a Grade 5 last start at this track, clocking a solid 29.47 over the 515m trip. Has the ability and looks a key chance again.

Hit the ground running with a slick early sectional but ran over late and missed the frame when a 3.5 lengths fourth (29.86) over 515m at this track. Has run slick time here with a 29.58 PB at the distance. Go close.

Good effort to win last start by 7 lengths over 515m at this track in a handy (29.12), beating Flying Rogue. Will find this a bit tougher, not one of the leading chances on this occasion.

Was out of the placings last time but the start prior finished in the minors when third (29.84) at big odds over 515m at this track. Has a wide draw to navigate but is among the better hopes.

Hit the ground running last time with a hot early split and never headed, leading throughout to win by 4 lengths (29.71) at this track. Yet to be beaten in two starts out of this box. Must be respected.
