Race preview

Welcome to Sandown for race two on the card, where we have a competitive 1300m Benchmark 74 handicap ahead of us on a Heavy 8 track with showers about. The jump is scheduled for 12:50 pm AEDT. Looking at the early win market order, Karren leads the betting lines, closely followed by Bacash, Befuddle, Skippers Canyon, Parvenu, Ruska Roma, and Just A Journey wrapping up the order. Let's dive straight into the numbers and see how this one shapes up for your punting day out.

The numbers jump off the page for some of these key hopes. Karren sits at the top of the market for trainer Lloyd Kennewell with Jamie Melham in the saddle from barrier 6, boasting a tidy record including a strong 1300m win at Bendigo two runs back before a fair fourth at Cranbourne, suggesting a big weight drop helps here. Bacash is right there in the market from barrier 7 with Craig Williams steering for the Hayes stable, bringing solid recent minor placings at Kyneton and Morphettville that say this runner rates a real chance despite the sticky draw. Meanwhile, Befuddle comes out of barrier 4 for trainer J D Sadler with Jackson Radley aboard, looking to press forward early after a solid fourth at Pakenham last time out where the big weight told.

Further down the speed maps and market order, we find some interesting angles to round out the race. Befuddle is listed in the speed groups as a leader who goes hard early, while Just A Journey and Bacash map right on pace. Skippers Canyon returns fresh here from barrier 2 for Phillip and Tommy Stokes, sporting a handy first-up record and a recent jump-out win at Pakenham that suggests an improved showing could be on the cards. Grab the program, check those track conditions, and enjoy the action as they head to the barriers.

AAP

Won in dominant fashion at Bendigo over this distance. Nice gate and big weights don't seem to worry him. Ticks the track and distance win box. Take beating.

ILB

Assumed control from the start when winning by 1 3/4L last time at Bendigo and has the ideal gate. Has won 2 from 3 attempts this preparation.

Scored by just under 2l at Bendigo last month; has winning C&D form to his name; should get involved.

RSIS

Showed a clean pair of heels when winning by a margin of 1 3/4L last time at Bendigo and drawn well. Tracking very well lately.

Comments

AAP

Resuming (20-weeks). Has run well fresh. Recent jump-out winner at Pakenham. Can make his presence felt fresh.

ILB

Has multiple wins first up. Started $4.60 and finished 6th last time at Caulfield but will try to take advantage of the draw. Has a great burst of speed late. Solid chance.

Left backers at 7-2 frustrated when sixth over 1m2f at Caulfield (handicap) dropped back in distance five months ago; track has proven suitable before; returns from a layoff; facing a testing assignment and unlikely to do better than a supporting role.

RSIS

Goes well when fresh. Was 7/2 and came in 6th last time at Caulfield but drawn nicely. Has a nice turn of foot. Coming back in distance. Could win this.

AAP

Resuming (53-weeks). In the minors at Warwick Farm first-up last campaign. Unplaced at past couple of jump-outs. One for the multiples fresh.

ILB

First up and ran 2nd first up last preparation at Warwick Farm. Has plenty of early speed. Taking on easier opposition. Back to a shorter trip. Up in weight. Good value.

Well held in the VRC Oaks at Flemington upped to 1m4½f a year ago; long absence to overcome; unlikely to achieve more than just a supporting role despite this looking a little easier than last time.

RSIS

Resuming and was competitive when 2nd resuming last preparation at Warwick Farm. Has shown early pace in races to date. Stepping down to a lower level. Expect a forward showing.

AAP

Resuming (18-weeks). Effective at this level last campaign. 3rd at most recent jump-out. Can play a role first-up.

ILB

First up and attacked the line when 3rd first up last preparation at Pakenham. Up against a less competitive field. Coming back in distance. Carrying more weight than last time.

Has not been firing consistently; not disgraced when seventh of 11 at Caulfield over 1m½f (handicap) in July; returns from a layoff; others appeal more with this looking like a hot contest.

RSIS

Resuming and made considerable ground when 3rd resuming last preparation at Pakenham. Dropping in class. Coming back in trip. Has to carry more weight this time.

AAP

Went close at Morphettville 17 Oct. Stuck to his guns to fill the minors when in the market at Kyneton. Tougher test from the draw. Again one for exotics.

ILB

Even though fading late still grabbed 2nd beaten by 1/2L last run at Kyneton. Shows good early pace. Craig Williams is in form for this stable. Should go well.

Normally pretty consistent; beaten half a length over 6f at Kyneton (handicap) last Wednesday; Craig Williams booked; not dismissed as recent performance was encouraging.

RSIS

Although fading at the finish still grabbed 2nd beaten by 1/2L last time at Kyneton. Jockey Craig Williams and trainer Will Ben & Jd Hayes are a strong team. Well respected contender.

AAP

Failed to threaten at Flemington as an outsider. First time around Sandown-Hillside. Leaning towards others here.

ILB

Didn't threaten when 14th last start at Flemington. Can show a better performance this time and lining up against easier rivals. Expected to be flashing home. Must respect.

Towards the rear of 16 last week at Flemington in a Group 3; has to be taken seriously if replicating her best form and down in class.

RSIS

Didn't threaten when 14th last time at Flemington. Has the potential to improve sharply and matched against a less competitive field. Should be swooping on the field late. Capable type.

Off pace, only battled home at Cranbourne. Others more persuasive.

ILB

At $5.50 lost ground in the run home when 8th last time at Cranbourne. Harry Coffey rates highly aboard.

Was held in eighth over 6f at Cranbourne (handicap) last month, behind Nation State; has managed three wins from 12 career runs; others have more pressing claims with several rivals in good nick.

RSIS

Started at 9/2 and couldn't maintain the pace when 8th last time at Cranbourne. Harry Coffey is a key booking.

AAP

Forwardly placed, continued to stick on at Cranbourne first up. Strips in better shape. On pacer. Big show.

ILB

Was overpowered late when 2nd beaten by 1L last run at Cranbourne.

Finishing second was a good effort three weeks ago at Cranbourne over 6f (handicap); has won here before; not a great record second time out after a break and unlikely to do better than a supporting role.

RSIS

Displayed a strong effort throughout the race when 2nd beaten by 1L last run at Cranbourne.

Kicks off second campaign (23-weeks). Did a terrific job in her first campaign. Best viewed as a rough place hope.

ILB

Back from break. Started at $9.00 and ran 10th last run at Eagle Farm but facing a weaker group of contenders. Coming back in trip. Needs to improve.

No impression when tenth of 18 five months ago at Eagle Farm in a Group 1; returns from an absence here; this is a step down in class but unlikely to do better than a supporting role.

RSIS

First run back. Started 8/1 and ran 10th last start at Eagle Farm but facing a weaker group of contenders. Jockey Daniel Stackhouse is in top form for this stable.

Got back and ran home steadily at Bendigo. First time around Sandown-Hillside. Hard to make a case.

ILB

Advanced late into 5th last time at Bendigo.

Not beaten too far when fifth at Bendigo over 7f (handicap) two weeks ago; resume shows that he is a proven winner (seeking a fourth career win); probably unlikely to trouble the principals in what appears to be a competitive contest.

RSIS

Moved through the field into 5th last time at Bendigo.

Freshened. Settled back and passed a few late in the 3yo+ (Bm74) at Seymour when second-up. One for your exotics.

ILB

Started at $20.00 and overtook some late when 5th last time at Seymour.

Not beaten that far over 5½f at Seymour (handicap) last month; a previous winner here; struggled a bit since winning a handicap at Cranbourne in February; this looks a decent race so is passed over.

RSIS

Was 19/1 and ran past a few when 5th last time at Seymour.

AAP

Early form good and a nice weight drop. Won a 1300m Class 1 at short odds Bendigo two back. Short odds but a tad disappointing at Cranbourne. Can figure with improvement.

ILB

Started at $1.80 and outmuscled in the run home when 4th last time at Cranbourne and honest performer putting a tidy record together. Displays good tactical speed. Expect a forward showing.

Has won at this course; favourite but out of the places when fourth over 7f at Cranbourne (handicap) three weeks ago; she's a serious player.

RSIS

Was 4/5 and lost momentum late when 4th last time at Cranbourne and good career start. Should muster plenty of early toe. Showing great form since returning from a break. Strong prospects in this race.

Big weight took its toll at Pakenham when second-up. Should press forward. Warrants attention.

ILB

At $3.60 peaked on the run when 4th last run at Pakenham but racing against tougher rivals. Will be positive in the run early. Gets a reduction in weight. May find these too slick.

Out of the money, beaten just over 1l, when fourth over 6f at Pakenham (handicap) last month; this line-up contains some strong opposition so only limited appeal.

RSIS

Started 13/5 and couldn't stay in touch when 4th last run at Pakenham and suited by the weight drop. Won't be far away during the run.

Emerged from midfield to get up in final strides at Warrnambool.

ILB

Backing up quickly for this race. Ran well when 2nd last run at Geelong but challenged by more formidable competitors. Showing positive results this preparation.

RSIS

On a short back up. Ran 2nd last start at Geelong but matched against a stronger field. In fine form since coming back from a break.

Odds correct as at Sat 14 Nov, 12:51 pm AEDT. Odds can change.
