Sandown Park Race 1 - Sportsbet Final
PAW CAMPUS (7) had a tough draw to overcome and was game in defeat when only 1.3 lengths from Tallangatta in third (23.82) at Horsham. Must come into calculations. BENARCA BELL (1) turned in a modest effort most recently when fifth at Horsham over 485m behind Word Gets Around (27.90) in a Maiden FIN. Bold showing expected. SWAYING (5) has first look around here after a moderate run last time, finishing sixth at Warragul over 400m behind Turbo Strike (23.24). Form from her last run is proving very strong. Has ability and a bold showing is expected. TRAVIS INTENTION (6) cannot be dismissed although new to this venue.
