Sandown Park Race 4 - Close Brothers Hcp

HOT AND COLD (2) Just missed last time at Ascot and up against a less competitive field. Has a great burst of speed late. Been in the money 2 from 2 attempts this campaign. Suited. CYRANO DE BERGERAC (1) Winner by 2 3/4L last start at Nottingham and up against weaker rivals. Been in the money each start this preparation and solid career start. Can win this. BLUE NOON (4) Ran 3rd last time at Lingfield and has been racing in stronger company. Should be going forward early. One of the hopes. KNIGHTSAIL (3) Resumes from a spell. Unimpressive effort when 7th last run at Nottingham but lining up against easier rivals. Can find a nice position from the draw. Worth some thought.
