SANDOWN-LAKESIDE   06 Aug 2025
 
GOING: G(4)

Tile Importer Handicap 2400m

Track: GOOD4   Rain (Max: 13)   Rail: Out 3m Entire Circuit.  

Genuine tempo with Broadfield leading the way. Tricky race. SHREWSBURY ROAD (10) hasn't done a whole lot of winning but is going well, just finding one better at his past couple of starts. He hit the line strongly to just miss at Sandown Hillside in a similar race last time out and should take beating again. HANAFUBUKI (2) hasn't fired in two runs back from a spell but wasn't beaten far last time in BM74 grade. She's still lightly raced and her best form would go close. UNTETHERED (4) is on a quick turnaround from Sunday having worked home well here over 2100m. Can improve again up in trip. ENZEDDER (9) hasn't won in a long time but sets up well here from an inside gate with D Lane booked. Should take some getting past. ROSSO (5) was just fair last time but has each way claims on best form. SUGGESTED PLAY: Leaning to Shrewsbury Road.
