Sandown Race 1 - Tom Mcginley Hrdl (Bm120)

We kick off Grand National Hurdle Day with a competitive BM120 jumps event. GOLDEN CRUSADER (2) just found one too strong at Casterton last time but had been going well prior, fourth to Ongatiti here prior with that horse well fancied in the feature. This looks a nice race for him. SPLIT (1) was a smart winner at Coleraine last time in a similar sort of contest. He's coming along nicely over the obstacles and should measure up again. ZINOVATION (3) beat MORRYL MORAL (4) in a maiden hurdle at Warrnambool two back. ZINOVATION has since battled into second to Ferago which ties in with GOLDEN CRUSADER, MORRYL MORAL has since run second to Flashlight who was behind SPLIT last time. All four of those tie in quite tightly, doubt there's much between them. GRIPPING (5) is next best but doubt he can win.

Last outing made ground from midfield; finished second in a small field at Casterton Bm115 Hdle on July 5 over 3500m, slow track; 4 len behind Ferago with 72kg at $2.80. Start before finished fourth of 8 runners at this track Bm120 Hdle on May 31 over 3400m, on a wet track; 5 len behind Ongatiti carrying 71kg at $3.70. No match last time but is good enough to take this out.

Useful gelding. Comes off a 35 day let-up. Last run finished second in a small field at Warrnambool Bm115 Hdle on June 28 over 3200m, in the wet; 15 len behind Ferago carrying 71kg at $1.90. The run before tracked on the speed and boxed on steadily; won by 2.5 len Warrnambool Mdn Hdle-Sw on June 14 over 3200m on heavy track defeating Morryl Moral with 69.5kg at $5.50 in a hurdle. Forward showing expected. Profiles well for this and can bounce back.

Last start finished fourth of 9 runners at Coleraine Mdn Hdle-Sw on July 19 over 3300m, on slow going 12 len behind Embezzler carrying 66.5kg at $31. Run before finished seventh of 12 runners at Warrnambool Bm56 on June 28 over 2350m, on a wet track; 19 len behind Step In Time with 67.5kg at $101. Likely to find this too tough without big improvement.
