7:30 Sandown Tips

​Richard Hannon's 4-year-old gelding is officially 2lb 'well in' at the weights for this contest and looks to have a massive chance of landing his second course-and-distance win of the month. ​He got his head back in front over this exact 1m trip at Sandown on July 3rd, digging deep to prevail by a head in a performance where the form has been heavily boosted by behind-the-field runners winning since. He backed that effort up 11 days ago with another very sharp second at Windsor over a mile. Because his official handicap mark is due to rise up to 81 in future contests, he gets to run off his lower rating of 79 here. ​Regular pilot Sean Levey takes the ride again from stall 5. While he can hang his head slightly under pressure late on, his high-cruising speed and proven affinity for Sandown's good summer turf give him the ultimate tracking profile to loom up late and take all the beating at around 11/4

R M Beckett is one of the top trainers. His horse, Swiped, won the last two races in a row and is usually racing as favourite.

WINSTONS WARRIOR has won two races at 7f and 1m fifth over 7f at Ascot on his latest outing earlier this month upped in trip to 1m should suit seems well treated and could well be able to win this race

Won on its first try on the grass last time out and is now into handicaps for the first time off a reasonable mark. I think we will see more improvement from this one again this evening.
