Sandown Park Race 4

Up Handicap

Prize Money: $21,217

MUHAAJIM (1) makes handicap debut following a 1.75L maiden victory over this distance at Pontefract. Can double up. DANGERMAN (5) represents notable connections. Improved from a last of twelve at Newbury to score impressively by 3L tackling this track and trip last time. Will be thereabouts. ADVANCING (2) scored by 1.5L debuting at Kempton Park AW before a fourth at Newcastle AW back in March. Interesting following a five-month break and wearing first-time cheekpieces. LIBERATE (3) narrowly won by a neck two starts back at Goodwood before a fourth at Chester. May return to winning ways.
