Sandown Park Race 8 - Sandowngreyhounds.com.au
HOT NANU (6) has been in the placings at his last two runs, most recently when third (29.54) in a Free For All over 515m at this track. Look for sharp improvement here. GIACOMO (4) ran good time (27.40) winning a Grade 4/5 two back at Horsham but last start was in trouble and failed to finish. Key player if finds best. LINDENOW BUSTER (2) produced an impressive win last time in quickest of the meeting when scoring by 1.4 lengths (24.35) at Sale. Has definite claims again. CAPRICORN ONE (1) will need to repeat last run to feature.

Sent out long odds last time but rocketed out of the boxes with a fast early sectional and gave a sight before being swallowed up late, finishing a 2.25 lengths third (29.54) over 515m at this track. Fought on last time. Right in the mix again.

Missed the frame last start when fourth and beaten 3.5 lengths at this track. Form solid prior to that including a win at this track three back. Has ability but this tough and will need some luck to feature.
