Sandown Park Race 1

Knox Tyre Power (0-2 W) (250+Rank)

Prize Money: $3,940

GRAPEFRUIT QUACK (2) jumped from this box last time and also the same course and distance when a 2.5 lengths second (34.88) in a Restricted WIN. Rates on top in this line up. MEPUNGA DESTINY (6) is long overdue for a win and in super consistent form, jumping from this box to place last time at The Meadows (30.43), making it four straight minors. Has the ability and can measure up. DEL AMITRI (4) doesn't have the best strike-rate. Finished in the money last time though when third (34.95) at this track. Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings two times from three starts. Leading player again. APPLE ROSE (1) is one of the chances after collecting a minor prize last time.

Is back up to 595m which has been an issue in the past. Last appeared when third over 515m at this track a week ago. Draw will be an advantage thereabouts and rates well in this. Expected to run well.

Yet to break through in four runs, the latest effort a second over 595m at this track in 34.88. Great chance to break through.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (30.14) in a Mix 6/7, finishing a 9 length fourth. Has one win and two placings from four starts from the draw. Looks a place chance at best.

Has raced seven times and is overdue for a win, the latest offering a second (30.43) over 525m at The Meadows. Gave a big sight after racing on the speed much of the way. Great chance to break through.
