Sandown Park Race 5 - Sandown Vet Clinic
PERFECT PICTURE (2) was beaten into fourth last time but ran impressive time with a good 30.02 at The Meadows over 525m. Has the ability and looks a key chance again. MOMENT (3) flew the lids off the inside draw with a fast early split and gave a sight, finishing a 2.75 lengths third (34.64) over 595m at this track. Didn't win last time but still ran one of the quickest times on the card. Must be included in calculations. GORRINGE (8) turned in a better effort at The Meadows last start, finishing third behind Socialism (34.95) in a Grade 5. Turned chasing the leaders but kept coming. Remains without a win from the draw but has been in the placings three times from six attempts. Leading chance. TO PERU (1) can find the frame without surprising.

Big odds last time but hit the ground running with a strong early split, giving a sight but fading only late to finish third (34.64) at this track over 595m. Looks well placed and should prove hard to beat.

Finished in the minors last time when second (30.58) at The Meadows, making it two placings on end. Drawn awkwardly. Has to do a bit more.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage seventh last time out over 460m at Warragul. Doesn't look smart enough to threaten the top few.

Hit the frame latest (34.95) when third at The Meadows in a Grade 5. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed three times. Makes strong appeal.
