Sandown Park Race 2 - Happy 70th Birthday Sandown Grc
MARSHAL LEE ROSE (6) found the frame for the second consecutive time when narrowly beaten into second last time out (29.78) over 515m at this track. Key player on best and expected to bounce back. TANDANYA (7) was quickly into stride and burnt early from out wide where he gave a sight, finishing second (29.91) and beaten a long neck over 515m at this track. Has a strong record out of this box with two wins and a minor placing from four starts. Must be included in calculations. CHEEKY CHOMPERS (1) missed the frame last time out when fifth at this track from Box two (30.20) but draws same box here as latest win. Solid record here at the distance winning four races. Won at his only start from this box. Will give the top chances plenty to think about. HOLDEN BALE (3) with some luck can improve on an unplaced run last time here.

Good effort to win last start by half a length over 500m at Bendigo in a handy (28.37), beating Kopacki Rit. In form and can make it three straight.

Could only manage sixth last time but the start prior hit the frame when second (29.73) over 515m at this track. Aided by a low draw and is among the better hopes.

Good effort at double-figure odds last time when third (30.44) over 525m at The Meadows. Awkward draw to overcome. Looks to have the job ahead.

Won two starts back at The Meadows over 525m in 30.49. Couldn't repeat the feat last time out when fifth over 500m at Bendigo at Grade 4/5 level. Looking to others this time.

Placed last time (29.78) at this track in a R/A FIN, finishing second and beaten 2.75 lengths. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed two times. Looks a key chance on best form.

Showed strong pace early but found one better when a long neck second over 515m this track in 29.91. Fought on last time. Right in the mix again.

Should get a clear run from the wide draw. Wasn't impressive last start but does have a great record at this track and distance, is a danger.
