Daily Mail: ‘Levitation’ to rise at Sandown Park

[Wandering Eyes]

The promising Levitation – racing for the first time since February 10 – is expected to boost her strike rate in a Mixed 4/5 515m race at Sandown Park this afternoon.

Yahiro Bale v G3 finalist Ariarne Bale v Black Spartacus, Rio Bhodi v She’s Refined, G3 finalist Hometown Hero v Soda Success and G3 winner Graclyn Bale v Invictus Jaxson should all be great clashes.

Panama Canal, Kepal and Slingshot Reaper will all be hoping to continue their hot form at Healesville, while Hello George v Major Cyclone v Dr. Slats v Hugo should be a great battle.

Just Like Mick, G3 runner-up Lakeview Max and G3 winner Ridge highlight their respective races at Sale this evening.

The Watchdog says : KID MALAWI (5) is a professional placegetter, and he should be powering home into a top-three finish. GUNAI REBEL (8) is ideally drawn and it’s hard to see him missing the placings. HOMETOWN HERO (1) is a serious prospect and should be leading throughout.

Multi price: $4.31

$4 Win – ARIARNE BALE
Sandown Park Race 4 Box 6 515m 3:02pm
TAB fixed odds: $2.80 Win
Form https://watchdog.grv.org.au/meeting/666540594/race/4

The Watchdog says : Powerful type and she will appreciate the empty draw inside. There is very little early pace on her outside and plenty of early pace drawn inside, so with a clean getaway, she should be able to drift across and find the rail early and she will be very strong in the closing stages.

Must Watch Race

Mixed Grade 4/5

Sandown Park Race 6
515m 3:42pm

The Watchdog says : CHOP SCOTCH (7) should be able to cross and lead but the explosive LEVITATION (1) should be too strong in the run home. WHARFIE (2) and RAISED (8) may be able to duke it out for third spot.

‘Must Watch Race’ Preview :

LEVITATION (1) is one of the state’s most exciting chasers and she returns to the track after just over a month off. She has gone sub 29.40sec here in four of her 13 starts to date and another quick run is expected if fully fit. There is plenty of early speed with WHARFIE (2) and CHOP SCOTCH (7), but the smaller line-up should allow LEVITATION to take a nice sit and carve out time coming from off the speed. RAISED (8) has been beaten in his past three runs on a circle track, however prior to that, he carved out some breathtaking times up the straight. If he can handle both turns here, he can cause a minor upset.
