Sandown Park Race 5 - Sportsbet Supporters Of Having A Crack

OPAWA FANNIN (1) ran right away with it after running them ragged to make it two on end, scoring by 5 lengths (29.71) at this track over 515m. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. Can continue on his winning ways. ASTON MACHINE (2) has an excellent record over this course and distance having never missed the placings in four starts, including two wins and two placings. Hit the frame latest (34.93) when second at The Meadows in a R/A FIN. Suited here and expected to run well.

Boasts a strong record from this draw with three wins and two minor placings from seven starts. Expected to be in the finish again. PAW ORENTHAL (6) boasts a solid strike-rate from this box.

Flew the lids with a fast early split but had to contend with second when clocking 34.93 over 600m at The Meadows. Boxed on well to finish runner-up last time. Leading player.

Missed the frame last start when seventh and beaten 12 lengths at Bendigo. Form solid prior to that including a win at this track three back. Has ability but needs to find best and others make more appeal.

Form has been good with a placing two starts ago and a win three runs back. Last time out finished 3rd over 515m at this track beaten 2.25 lengths (29.89) behind Maxi Grin in a Grade 4 on October 1. Has clocked a sharp 29.55 Best Time here at the trip. Sound prospects.
