Sandown Park Race 7

Launching Pad Ht5 (1-6 Wins)

Prize Money: $14,650

GAMBELLA (8) boasts a strong record this journey with six wins and three minors from 13 tries. Recorded a 9 length win (29.04) in a Free For All last time at this track. Expected to go close. ASTON RAYNER (1) is progressing well with another good run, placing by a neck (29.70) in a R/A FIN at this track. The form from his last run is stacking up nicely. Expecting another good run. CANYA ALL UP (7) is progressing well scoring last time out (23.87) at Bendigo and bringing up his 6th career win. The form out of last race has been strong. Should feature again. DOONGALLA ROCKET (6) missed the frame latest (30.13) when sixth over 515m at this track in a Restricted WIN H. Has already won out of this draw.

Showed strong pace early but found one better when a neck second over 515m this track in 29.70. Fought on last time. Right in the mix again.

Good effort to win last start by a neck over 515m at this track in a handy (29.68), beating Aston Rayner. Will find this a bit tougher, happy to risk in this.

Easy winner on debut, leading throughout to post a big 7 lengths victory in a Maiden last start at Warrnambool, recording a dominant 25.05 over the 450m journey. Harder here but warrants respect on latest.

Did a good job two starts back at Ballarat to win by 6 lengths in 24.92, beating Ram Raid. Last start finished last on March 10 over 515m at this track behind Come To Party beaten 10 lengths (30.13) in a Restricted WIN H. Expect improvement on the latest effort. Great chance to atone.

Caught the eye with a fast early split and setting up a 2.75 lengths win at Bendigo over 425m in 23.87. Strong form emerging from the last run. Looks one of the chances.
