SANDOWN-HILLSIDE   16 Jul 2025
 
GOING: S

Stow Storage Solutions Handicap 1300m

Track: Soft 5   Rain (Max: 14)   Rail: Out 5m Entire Circuit.  

Strong pace with Prevailed pushing forward along with Eugenius from an outside gate. Huge field and tough race. EUGENIUS (11) was slow to begin and burnt early to race on speed on the Lakeside track in the latest. Game in defeat and can go close again here. VIENNA VIXEN (16) has been running on hard, the latest when third behind Silver Cliff who is in the previous race. Has a tricky gate here but will be running on hard again. JUSTADEEL (4) is a promising type resuming. Won the Silverbowl Final at Flemington just over a year ago at last run. Fitter for two jump-outs and looks a leading player on best. SACRAMENTAL (17) wasn't far away at the last run and is drawn for a nice trip with cover. Should be hard to hold out. SUGGESTED PLAY: Eugenius could be value.
