Sandown Race 2 - Kris Kalifatidis Mdn Plate
THANKS GORGEOUS (11) has had a few chances with four minor placings from six starts but looks very well placed back in maiden grade having run a cracker in the G3 Thoroughbred Club Stakes behind top filly Inkaruna. Her form is largely in better races than this and the 1200m seems to be key. Gets her chance to break through. YELLOWJACKET (13) is the danger. She was very good on debut from a mile back at Pakenham over 1000m, charging home into second. She should relish the extra furlong here and will be hard to hold out despite a tricky map. LAYLA (6) is a filly by Justify on debut for the Hayes yard. She's been trialling and jumping out well and looks to have plenty of ability, respect. CELESTRA (1) resumes having run well on debut last time in. Can improve this time around and has claims. SASS APPEAL (9) can run well on debut.

Resuming from a lengthy break. Only one run when 3rd in a small field at this track 2yo F Hcp on July 2 over 1300m, slow going 1.75 len behind Savannah Chill with 58kg at $3.20. Looks forward enough after a recent trial win. Can improve this time around, respecting.

Three-year-old filly by leading sire So You Think out of Cristal Eyes who was bought for AUD $ 120,000 (Inglis 2024 Premier Yearling Sale). She has five recent trials prior to her debut today. Finished fourth in a Cranbourne jump-out on December 1. Aided by a nice alley so could well play a big role.

Third-up today and placed third-up in the past. First-up 2nd of 8 at Bendigo Mdn-Sw on October 29 over 1000m, 1.5 len behind Cavern carrying 56kg at $1.90. Second run from a spell crossed from a wide gate to settle just off the pace but gave ground when 4th of 16 at Caulfield in the G3 Thbrd Club on November 15 over 1200m, 2 len behind Inkaruna carrying 56kg at $61. Way back in grade and rates highly to break through.
