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

Stow Storage Solutions Handicap 1400m

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

Carbonados to set a strong early tempo with Danaustar coming across. Handy race for a Wednesday. STEP ASIDE (12) has been a frustrating conveyance this time in, often left with too much to do from tricky gates. Looks to set up okay here, Shinn sticks and this is certainly easier than last start behind Craig. SUNSET DREAMING (15) has placed in all three runs this time in and rates a solid each way hope again. DANAUSTAR (1) was below his best at Caulfield last time but had been good in a BM88 in Sydney prior and can bounce back. ANGRY SKIES (2) is a consistent type who rates a good each way chance again. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Step Aside.

Useful gelding. Returns from a 32-day let-up. Last start raced behind the speed prior to fading 7th of 11 at Caulfield Bm84 on August 17 over 1400m, 6 len behind Running By with 59kg at $10. The start before that made some head-way from midfield; 3rd of 10 at Rosehill Bm88 on July 20 over 1300m, slow going 1.1 len behind Robusto carrying 57kg at $6.50. Better than that and cannot be underestimated.
