Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted February 26 Journalists Share Posted February 26 What Sandown Hillside Races Where Sandown Racecourse – 591-659 Princes Hwy, Springvale VIC 3171 When Wednesday, February 28, 2024 First Race 3:40pm AEDT Visit Dabble Metropolitan racing in Victoria returns to Sandown’s Hillside track this Wednesday afternoon. The weather promises a delightful summer’s day, with expectations of a Good 4 track at the outset, possibly improving as the day progresses. The rail remains in its true position, with racing scheduled to commence at 3:40pm AEDT. Best Bet at Sandown: Et Tu Brute Et Tu Brute was only beaten by 4.2 lengths in the Group 3 CS Hayes Stakes (1400m) on February 17 at Flemington. Prior to that run, the three-year-old gelding returned with a dominant 1300m win on the Lakeside track at Sandown, and a repeat of that effort should be enough as he steps up to the mile third-up. With a strong finishing burst, Et Tu Brute should have no issue in disposing of this lot. Best Bet Race 3 – #2 Et Tu Brute (2) 3yo Gelding | T: Anthony & Sam Freedman | J: Damian Lane (59.5kg) Bet with Neds Next Best at Sandown: Hazel Baby Ciaron Maher’s Hazel Baby was a dominant Moonee Valley BM64 winner on February 9. When the gap appeared on the rail turning for home, the Toronado mare produced a slick turn of foot to go on and win by just over a length. She meets a similar field at Sandown and, from barrier two under Jamie Kah, draws to gain every favour in running. With the long straight on the Hillside track, the gap will eventually come — and when it does, look for Hazel Baby to charge through it. Next Best Race 7 – #4 Hazel Baby (2) 4yo Mare | T: Ciaron Maher | J: Jamie Kah (60.5kg) Bet with Playup Best Value at Sandown: Kodiak With three wins and six seconds from 10 starts, the Anthony & Sam Freedman-trained Kodiak looks more than up to this grade as he faces his toughest yet. He is a natural frontrunner, and from barrier three, Mick Dee should have no issue in finding the rail and dictating terms throughout. With six weeks between runs, and an easy lead expected, Kodiak will look like the winner at some point and has what it takes to fend off his rivals late. Best Value Race 8 – #13 Kodiak (3) 4yo Gelding | T: Anthony & Sam Freedman | J: Mick Dee (59.5kg) Bet with Picklebet Sandown Hillside Wednesday quaddie tips – 28/2/2024 Sandown quadrella selections Wednesday, February 28, 2024 2-4-5-6 1-2-4-10 3-4-10 1-9-10-13 | Copy this bet straight to your betslip Horse racing tips View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
