Sandown Park Race 12 - Sportsbet Blackbook

WONDERFUL WORK (3) turned in a better effort at Geelong last start, finishing second behind Moraine Koby (25.78) in a Grade 5. Chased the leaders and with a clean run can be prominent. Winning claims. MELT MAX (1) struggled to get involved last start after settling well back at this track, but prior to that won easily by 4 lengths at Geelong (25.82) beating Parumba Jazzman in a Grade 5 on October 16. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. NARINGAL LAD (2) showed little early speed at his last couple, the latest finishing fifth (26.15) in a Grade 4/5 at Geelong. Solid record at the distance winning four races. Yet to miss the placings in six runs from this box, including two wins. One of the main contenders. DETECTION (8) placed last time and cannot be ignored.

Won two starts back when well in the market at Geelong over 460m. Last start finished 7th on October 26 over 515m at this track behind Cruise Commander beaten 10 lengths (30.20) in a Grade 5. Not far away last start. Right in the mix again.

Was out of placings last time (26.15) at Geelong in a Grade 4/5, finishing fifth and beaten 8 lengths. Yet to miss the frame from six starts from the draw, including two wins. Looks one of the chances.
