Sandown Park Race 2 - British Stallion Studs Ebf Maiden Stakes (Gbb Race)
TOO DARN GOOD (4) is yet to place in three career starts. Finished fourth on most recent appearance at Windsor twelve days ago. Could make the placings. AKIRRA (1) finished fourth at Windsor debuting last month and can improve to make the top-three. LOVE ALIVE (9) may come on from a last-start fourth at Ascot after finishing eighth at Ffos Las prior. Thereabouts. BACK TO BLACK (6) is the pick of the debutants. Bred by Dark Angel out of G3 Prix Eclipse winner Souvenir Delondres and is a half-sister to the G3 Ballycorus Stakes winning Dr Zempf. Worth considering.

Last start 4th of 9 at Windsor on July 26 over 1000m, 1.75 len behind Desert Treasure with 60.5kg at $10. The start before that raced on the speed throughout before fading 9th of 12 at Salisbury on June 10 over 1200m, 5.5 len behind Factual with 59kg at $6.50. Rates highly and is right in the mix again.

Two-year-old colt who is first starter by Land Force out of Pack Together. Profiles well and worth watching for any market moves.

Having third race start. At debut, 9th of 11 at Windsor on July 21 over 1200m, 21 len behind Reimagined carrying 57kg at $11. Second-up eased back early on 7th of 9 at Windsor on July 28 over 1200m, 12 len behind Hilitany carrying 58kg at $51. Goes up a rung or two but she is capable of running a bold race.
