Daily Mail: Rupee to ‘cash’ in at Sandown

[Wandering Eyes]

Potential superstar Aston Rupee, widely regarded as the fastest greyhound in the land, will headline Thursday night racing at Sandown Park.

Brilliant winner of the G3 Speed Star last month, Aston Rupee (10 from 19 – 2 from 2 Box 3 – 29.06sec PB) returns to Sandown in a strong Grade 5, where his opposition includes last start G1 Australian Cup finalist Hill Top Jack (13 from 30 – 3 from 5 Trk/Dst) and Shadow Mist (27 from 65 – 6 from 9 Box 2), which drops back to 515m after finishing 2^nd  in the middle distance G2 McKenna Memorial at his most recent appearance

G1 Sapphire Crown finalist Persian Goddess (11 from 26) scored impressively at her 595m debut last Sunday and will tackle G1 Sandown Cup finalist Kenny The Brute (9 from 32) and exciting distance prospect Mepunga Ruby (8 from 13 – 6 of past 7 – 2 from 2 Trk/Dst).

In the following race, another emerging staying talent in Major Sacrifice (6 from 21) is chasing a fourth straight win.

There will be no place to hide in a three-way clash between Invictus Rising (8 from 17 –  3 from 6 Trk/Dst),  Rebel Riot (2 from 2 Trk/Dst – 2 from 3 Box 4) and Riccarton Rick (7 from 19 Trk/Dst).

There’ll also be great quality on display at Warrnambool, with the ‘main event’ a showdown between G1 Silver Chief finalists Aussie Secret (24 from 47 – 5 of past 6) and Jepara (15 from 42 – 3 from 4 Trk/Dst – 4 from 7 Box 4).

Also not be missed is former Ballarat 450m record-holder Pirate Pete (12 from 34 – 3 from 4 Box 1) clashing with another Silver Chief finalist in Earn The Answers (10 from 33 – 2 from 3 Trk/Dst), while G2 Warrnambool Cup finalist Got The Torque (12 from 43 – 4 of past 5) is looking to continue his excellent recent form.

MUST-WATCH RACE: Tile Form Grade 5

SHADOW MIST ASTON RUPEE HILL TOP JACK JUNK FOOD JUNKIE

Sandown Race 3 515m 6:54pm

Form https://watchdog.grv.org.au/meeting/666541514/race/3

The Watchdog says : ASTON RUPEE (3) is one of the most exciting chasers in the game and he looks poised to score again tonight. He beat an all-star line-up at The Meadows last Saturday in a blistering 29.75sec and with the abundance of early speed with RUN BABA RUN (1) tonight, he should get a nice run through at the bend, and he will get every chance to obliterate the clock again. SHADOW MIST (2) was placed at Group 2 level here last time out and he can handle the drop back in distance. He has won six of nine from this draw and he will be very strong in the run home, so if there is to be an upset, he could be the one. HILL TOP JACK (6) contested the Group 1 Maturity Classic Final on the weekend, and he was far from disgraced when finishing fourth. He is poorly drawn tonight and is going to need a few things to go his way, however he has the motor and can’t be ruled out. JUNK FOOD JUNKIE (8) and ALL INN BILLY (5) round out the other major players. Both are high class gallopers and have the ability to put themselves into contention at the first bend. Should be a great race and fingers crossed ‘Rupee’ gains a clear passage throughout and he could test the 29 seconds barrier.

The Watchdog says : STEAMER REDEEMER (1) should lead them up in the first event, however TOBY CASTLE (2) and JYE’S JET (8) are both talented and could cause an upset. The other three legs are all perfectly drawn in the red and a top three finish looks likely for all of them.

The Watchdog says : MEPUNGA FELIX (3) will appreciate the drop in class, and he should figure in the finish tonight. AUSSIE SECRET (5) is airborne at present, and he should be leading throughout. STIFF WIND (4) has good early burn and he can atone for his luckless runs of late.

The Watchdog says : ASTON RUPEE (3) is the fastest chaser on the planet, and he will take a power of beating tonight. The inside division have the early speed and can figure in the minor end of the money.

The Watchdog says : MEPUNGA RUBY (6) was huge in her heat win, and she looks to be the best anchor in the four legs of the quaddie. MAJOR SACRIFICE (7) is poorly drawn in the second leg, so we have taken him on. The last two legs we are coming home strong and hoping for some value as well.
