Sandown Park Race 3

Thr33 Series Ht1

Prize Money: $3,340

DEL AMITRI (2) is a talented type and proved too strong last time to win by 2.25 lengths at this track in a handy 34.93 beating Just Jezebel. Has hit winning form and can measure up again. HERE TO PLAY (7) showed little early speed at her last couple, the latest finishing fourth (26.53) in a Grade 5 NP at Warragul. Can figure in the finish. SURF'S UP (1) missed the frame last time when sixth (30.14) at this track in a Grade 5 FIN but not beaten far the start prior. Well placed here and can atone this time. TREBLE BEERS (5) should be thereabouts after filling a top-three spot as favourite most recently.

Missed the frame last start when sixth and beaten 17 lengths at The Meadows. Form solid prior to that including a win at this track three back. Rates strongly and can return to winning form.
