Sandown Race 1 - Sportsbet Feed (Bm70)
HIGHLAND BLAZE (1) is the one to beat off the back of a dominant seven-length victory over this trip at Moonee Valley last time, proving the strongest stayer in a genuine test- no surprise given he'd run in a 4600m Jericho Cup only two starts prior. A repeat of last start sees him just about win this. TAVABEEL (4) drops 5kg off a last-start win at Werribee in easier company. He looks suited to 3000m now and can measure up. MAKE US PROUD (2) is a lightly raced six-year-old who struggled over this trip at Moonee Valley last time but had been showing promise prior and could bounce back quickly. DIWALI (3) ran quite well behind HIGHLAND BLAZE at Moonee Valley last time and has the upside to at least bridge back some of that margin. HIGHNESS (5) is up in trip but looks to be making up the field of five.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run scored a big 7 len win at Moonee Valley Bm70 January 24 over 3000m defeating Galilaeus with 56kg at $13. The race before that 2nd of 9 at Geelong Bm64 on January 15 over 2418m, 0.8 len behind Sun Gift with 59kg at $8. Confidence back and is worth following up.
