SANDOWN-LAKESIDE   04 Jun 2025
 
GOING: G

Sportsbet Feed Handicap 2400m

Track: Good 4   Rain (Max: 13)   Rail: Out 3m Entire Circuit.  

Slane is likely to take charge and set a decent tempo. No reason to jump off the progressive BLUESTONE (3) who made it three from four with an impressive win at Sandown Hillside last time out. He had no luck in running but found a gap up the rails and surged late to get up by a neck. Can continue to improve and might just prove too good again. LAST RAIDER (8) ran well behind the smart Party Crasher first up at Morphettville over 2009m and should be fitter for that. He's a handy stayer on his day who will be hard to hold out. SUN GIFT (9) improved getting to this trip behind Bluestone last time out, only beaten a length. Should be right there again. GHETTO SUPASTAR (6) doesn't win out of turn but has claims on best form if he can find it. SUGGESTED PLAY: Bluestone to win.
