Sandown Park Race 10 - Sandown Vet Clinic
STARBORN (3) goes very well at the course with three wins and a placing from eight starts. Recorded a 4.5 lengths win (30.12) in a Grade 5 last time at The Meadows. Looks a key chance on best form. MEPUNGA TURBO (7) was out of placings last time (31.82) at The Meadows in a Grade 5, finishing sixth and beaten 23 lengths. Has an unbeaten record from this draw, scoring two times. Looks one of the chances. COOL DISGUISE (2) is worth forgiving last start after finishing fourth (30.01) from Box 6 at this track over 515m. Has a strong record out of this box with two wins and a minor placing from three starts. Can figure in the finish. KATIE BELL (1) is in the mix despite missing out at this track last time.

Missed the frame last time but finished in the minors at big odds two back when third (25.64) over 450m at Ballarat. Nicely drawn on the inside and is worth plenty of thought.

Hasn't been that impressive recently but he does have good record over this track and distance. Yet to be beaten in two starts out of this draw. Sure to go well.
