SANDOWN-HILLSIDE   18 Sep 2024
 
GOING: G(4)

Sportsbet Fast Form Handicap 1300m

Track: GOOD 4   Rain (Max: 17)   Rail: Out 12m Entire Circuit.  

A keen early battle to ensue between Flying Basil, Hello World and Mistavain. KAHHOF (1) is a consistent type who has placed in both runs back from a spell in slightly stronger races than this. He looks nicely placed back to a BM64 from an ideal gate for Zahra. HELLO WORLD (2) ran well fresh at Caulfield in a BM74, no match for Beast Mode who won easily but doing well to hold down second. Fitter for that and will go close. PREVAILED (3) is racing well, winning two back in this grade before another sound effort behind Riproar. Loses nothing with Lane replacing Shinn and should be thereabouts again. SUPPOSE I DO (7) is in great form with two wins in a row although this is a decent step up. SACRAMENTAL (9) is worth keeping an eye on fresh. SUGGESTED PLAY: Kahhof on top.
