SANDOWN-HILLSIDE   08 May 2024
 
GOING: G

Tile Importer Handicap 1000m

Track: GOOD 4   Clear (Max: 17)   Rail: Out 9m Entire Circuit.  

Solid tempo likely from the outset with a number of speedy beginners engaged, most notably Grand Larceny and Scorsese. BONNIE AMORE (9) is close to another win, beaten under a length at Caulfield Heath last time out by a handy filly. Has found a suitable race here post-scratchings. Should be hard to hold out here. RUSSIAN BOBSHARK (6) was far too good on debut after starting $1.60 at Cranbourne. More depth here but looks smart. MANTUA (11) should be ready to peak third up and should prove hard to beat. GRAND LARCENY (7) resumes having won his maiden at Newcastle before a spell. Profiles well for this and should take plenty of catching. SUGGESTED PLAY: Bonnie Amore on top.
