Mandurah Race 7

Sandgroper 24 April

Stake: $6,725

SUNSET NIGHTJAR (8) could not have been more impressive last start in his slick 27.25 win at this track in a Grade 3/4 over 488m. In form and rates on top again. ASTON BOLLINGER (1) was well supported last start but didn't deliver when eighth (30.69), beaten 14 lengths. Was in the money the start prior. Cannot be taken lightly. ASTON SMOKEY (7) finished well back at Cannington last time when a 7 length sixth (30.11) but scored five back at Hobart (25.73). Warrants plenty of respect. SHOW IT (4) gets a chance to redeem an unplaced effort here last start.

Missed the frame last time but the start prior clocked a solid 29.86 over 520m when went down narrowly, at Cannington. Rates a top chance with a repeat here.

Good effort at double-figure odds last time when third (27.46) over 488m at this track. Has a low draw. Prefer others.

Got back last start and could only manage seventh but before that won by 0.8 lengths at this track (27.60) beating West On Gnocchi in a Grade 5 on March 21. Happy to risk in this.

Goes well at this track and trip. Most recent effort finished 5th in a Grade 4/5 on March 28 over 400m at this track behind Spider Venom beaten 8 lengths (22.83). Solid claims this line-up.

Disappointed last time but just missed the placings two back over 520m at Cannington. Not keen, needs to lift.

Quickly out of the boxes with a slick early sectional clocking 27.25 with a 2 length win at this track over 488m. Looks the one to beat again.
